 Description of the problemI took my 2006 avalon in to nalley toyota for an oil line recall. I asked them if they could also look into the floor mat recall for me. They told me no decision had yet been made on the floor mat issue but went ahead with the oil line recall. I picked my car up that afternoon, drove 15 minutes to my mother's apartment. While slowly guiding my way into a parking place, my car accelerated violently propelling itself up over a curb and through a wooden fence, landing with my back tires on the front curb of the parking place. My braking had no effect and upon landing on the downside of the slope, my engine died. I called toyota immediately asking what they could have done to cause this to happen since my car had never had this happen before in the 4 years i had it, and yet happened 15 minutes after they had worked on it. They said nothing was done that could have caused this. We complained to the area toyota rep and an inspector came and look at the car at the nalley repair shop we had it towed to. Toyota says my car checks out fine and any problem was caused by the floor mats /driver. The serviceman did not advise me to remove the floor mats that were in place when they were working on the car. They released it to me with the floor mats in place. Furthermore, i contend that the first thing i check after the sudden acceleration was the location of the floor mat,which was flat against the floor.
