How to look at the door Toyota recall the events of the automotive electronics
? - Automotive Electronics, Toyota recall - automotive electronicsI believe we all heard the famous phrase of Toyota's ad for "car to the front there is a road, a road there is Toyota," but in turn of the year Toyota recalled the door event and allows the Toyota no longer no turning back. Once upon a time, General Motors in bankruptcy against the financial crisis gave Toyota the opportunity of reaching the top, but this incident is recalled the door Toyota experience a feeling of standing above the crowd.

Widely reported, according to Toyota to figures released by the Department on the 2nd, the Toyota will recall 9.1 million cars in total, of which 5.35 million is because "may hinder the brake pads," 4.45 million is because there is the brake pedal can not reset the security risks, including the Camry recall models, Corolla, Lexus, RAV4, etc. A total of 8, this large-scale recall, even those who see the media used to storms are popping. With the expansion of the event, Toyota's head of Toyota was forced out of Chapter M apologized, but the incident did not develop toward the direction of Toyota's expected, especially the American media is the poor standard play the Toyota. Have commented that the event has evolved into the door Toyota recall a political game.
The current U.S. media has been speculation Toyota pedal problem is caused by the car's electronic brake defect caused by the device itself, but Toyota insists the problem is the accelerator pedal mechanical problems: air-conditioning heat generated by increased coagulation the accelerator pedal of friction, sometimes leading to the pedal can not be reset. As a response to this incident, Sasaki said Toyota vice president, Toyota Although the brake pedal itself a heat test, but did not put it in the brake system for testing a variety of environments, recognition of the quality management system loopholes . But the U.S. media that the electronic brake system problems to say, Sasaki explicitly denied: "After a thorough examination, referring to electronic systems there is no problem." So, now the focus of the event all concentrated in the automotive safety the problem itself, just this week the U.S. House of Representative's Energy Office has also requested Toyota electronic control system security investigation.
About from the beginning of this century, Toyota started using a new electronic throttle. In the past, pedal cars through the cable connected to the engine throttle control to accelerate, slow down. Toyota then started to use the fully electronic type pedal using sensors detect the driver stepped on the accelerator pedal force and speed, and then send a signal telling the engine computer speed up or slow down, now, electronic pedal has been widespread. In fact, with the current automotive technology advances, more automotive electronics technology, products were applied to the vehicle above, in addition to the application of automotive systems automotive electronic technology, there are a large number of automotive electronics products, but also applied to the vehicle above, such as car navigation products the most widely used, car anti-theft products. Can be said that the progress of automotive technology to improve the car's driving performance has achieved a lot, but now it seems the Toyota gas pedal incident aroused for automobile electronic technology to re-examine?
But the situation is really like some of the media in propagandizing, or as some people fear it? From the University of Michigan professor of industrial engineering at the Toyota pedal Lake incident shows his views were expressed: more advanced electronic systems, but also more secure. They use micro-chip control and transmission of information. If any of a computer chip fails, there will be information on the chip immediately stop working.
Editorial: A large number of facts have proven that the progress of automotive electronic technology gives us better control in the driving experience, but also to make our cars more energy-saving, environmental protection, regardless of the Toyota Let us recall the incident because in the end they do not return due to automotive electronics itself, even if the issue of electronic components themselves With a positive attitude we have to look at this matter, rather than the decline of automotive electronic technology development itself. We should give the development of automotive electronics to provide a more relaxed environment, as the problems caused by the electronic case, the warning provided to us is: We need to tighten the security of automotive electronics has done more to test, nothing more.
