Description of the problem | While pulling into a marked parking space vehicle suddenly accelerated. It jumped two wheel stoppers, went up a small hill and within a couple of feet of running into a cement building before i could stop it. Very very scary situation. I called germaim toyota in naples, florida and had the vehicle taken there. At this point in time, i don't know how they are going to correct the problem. |
