That's the evil thing about product placement - you don't actually notice some of those things until someone tells you about them. I didn't actually know about more than half the things in that Heroes wiki page - only the obsession with Nissan was blatant enough to be memorable. It's of questionable benefit to the advertiser if the prospective consumer doesn't remember the brand name, but I suppose there is still a subliminal effect of some sort for brand recognition. Sort of like "oh yeah. I've heard that brand name before but I can't remember where. Maybe I'll buy that". Heh.
