Description of the problem | Regarding toyota aoa recall: i experienced the acceleration problem with my avalon on oct 1, 2008 and do not feel the latest corrective action of a reinforcement bar will address the problem. I brought my vehicle into darcars 355 toyota on oct 2, 2008 and provided a detailed description of the incident. Toyota did not follow up with me. When toyota initially announced the acceleration problem was due to floormats, i again notified my dealer service team that my floormats were anchored and that was not the problem- toyota again did not follow up with me. I went to the silver spring darcars service group for the aoa recall and spoke to the service manager regarding the steel bar reinforcement action and explained why i did not feel this would address the problem. Toyota is not listening and i do not want to see anyone else die due to this issue. Please have the lead investigator for the toyota acceleration recall call me. |
