eh...I would hope they would have a backup mechanical system in case the electrical part fails. 2 injectors on my truck failed which caused it to run miserably. I worked on many cars over the summer that had wiring issues where the engine just wouldn't run right.

Basically, if something happens with the electrical system and you can't brake...good luck

Yeah I know, it's ridiculous. It's almost unbelieveable, especially from a Ford Engine...
