Those factors were very much taken into consideration. What we couldn't find is the impact on the environmental factors that affected some of the plastic components inside the gas pedal. That's why we could not detect it. So when we did the bench test that didn't show. With all the reliability tests it didn't show. Only after some of the vehicles were subjected to the field did we then find a few of these incidents.
