Toyota (again).

I think Audi has started this already, but when the car is shut off, the computer reels out the rear brakes to lock the car in place, automatic e-brake. Problem is, when the car needs new brakes, the mechanic has to have the apparatus to tell the computer to unclamp the brakes from the rotors, or else the brakes cannot be replaced. Supposed cost for the software/interface to an indy shop, ~$25k.
