    Hot off the presses:

    (1) Floor mat was from a Lexus RX400h improperly installed in a ES350

    (2) Gas pedal design is poor (no means of relieving force caused by interference)

    (3) Lexus ES braking system loses power assist at full throttle (!!!) increasing braking distance 5 fold.

    (4) Push button start/stop switches mode while in motion and requires 3 seconds of pressing before shutting off.

    That explains why most of the Pigg suggestions would not have worked…still no word on why taking it out of gear would not work. I’m laying my money on an explanation for that being forthcoming.

    I never understood the fascination with automakers sticking more and more electronics into cars these days.

    Is it really that hard for someone to turn a key to start a car?

    It has push button start, so the user could have just toss the keys out of the window and after a short distance, the car will shut off.
