| Description of the problem | We own a 2007 toyota avalon limited. We have received recall notices on the floor mats,accelerator pedal and an oil supply hose. All are to be corrected next week. This complaint is for the purpose of letting you know that neither the accelerator pedal nor the floor map is the cause of sudden acceleration. I say this because my wife drives with hand controls with a steel plate guarding and protecting the accelerator from being used by her. Therefore it is not these items causing the sudden acceleration. We have had it happen on 3 or 4 different occasions so it was not isolated nor were these recall items at fault. Please feel free to contact us for further info if needed. Thanks. |
