| Description of the problem | I was stopping in a tennis court parking lot when the car suddenly accelerated and hit a tree. The damage came to about $7,000. This was the second time this happened. The first time was 4/2/2014. The car suddenly accelerated when i was going approx. 5 miles an hour but i was on a straight stretch of road and stopped the car without doing any damage. The first time i took the car to the toyota dealer and they could not find anything wrong. I fell that this car has a serious defect and should not be driven until this problem is fixed. |
