It's not just Fox, it is foreign media as well. German media brought the story already weeks ago. And according to them, the report says that it is not just some cases of drivers mistaking pedals, but a very big share of them did. Sometimes it even was said that this was no exception from the rule, but that it was the rule, and that there is no systematic technical problem with the pedals at all.

Which means it all is just a conspiracy to get rid of a highly unwanted superior rival on the US car market, after the US car makers fumbeld so badly.

there is nothing better than some occasional bit of protectionism and manipulating the competition of the oh so free market, right? By withholding vital information for customers that help their buying decision, for example. and once the dohb t got spread, it is hard to put it back into the box again, even if it was false alarm. which actually may have been the intention behind this story being blown up.
