| Description of the problem | On 2/10/2010 i was driving my 2006 toyota avalon headed to work. I made a complete stop at a stop sign and proceeded to turn right doing about 5 mph. Once i turned the corner my car accelerated and went up on the curb and hit a fire hydrant. I was the only person occupying the vehicle and i was not hurt. I have since then had the recalls fixed on my car by the dealer, but they failed to tell me if my accelarator pedal was defected! |
