Description of the problem | While driving at approximately 45 miles per hour our 2004 toyota camry suddenly decelerated, and was only able to move forward very slowly. After pulling the car off of the travel lane and into a safe location, it was noted that the check engine light was on. The car could be driven very slowly (approximately 2-4 miles per hour) with the accelerator depressed completely. After about 45 seconds the car would accelerate to 35-40 miles per hour and stay at that speed with the accelerator completely depressed. The car was unsafe to operate with these accelerator problems. We had the car towed to a toyota dealer who informed us that the electronic throttle control computer had failed, and that the entire electronic throttle control computer must be replaced. |
