Description of the problem | My 2004 toyota camry xle (6 cylinder) has a sticking gas pedal problem. When accelerating from a stationary position, the gas pedal is difficult to depress from the "up" position. It takes a fair amount of pressure when pressing down on the gas pedal to get it to release from the stuck position and allow the pedal to further depress for proper acceleration. When the gas pedal finally does release after applying pressure, the motor has revved up causing the car to, in essence, pop a wheelie, spin its wheels, and accelerates in a potentially dangerous manner. This toyota model has not yet been included in the current recall, but i am concerned that it should be recalled since it is exhibiting similar symptoms as those included in the recall. I am becoming increasingly concerned that this car poses a risk profile and should not be driven without being fixed. |
