| Description of the problem | I have a 2006 toyota avalon. I took it in a few weeks ago to have the accelerator recall problem "fixed". Today (3/14), i was traveling thru a shopping center parking lot at 10 to 12 mph. As i touched the brake, the car started to accelerate, grinding thru the brakes. I pushed it into neutral and jammed the brake. There was a very loud "thunk" and the car stopped and ceased trying to accelerate. |
