Toyota Motor Corp. denied a CNN report that engineers told the carmaker in 2006 they found faulty software that led to sudden unintended acceleration in tests.
CNN, citing an internal memo, reported tests of a preproduction model showed the fail-safes for the electronics that governed the vehicle's cruise control needed to be improved. Toyota said it deliberately introduced the error to test its systems and CNN had mistranslated the document.
