 Description of the problemWhile my wife and i were at a complete stop in a line of traffic, our eleven month-old camry le suddenly accelerated unexpectedly and without warning while my foot was squarely and firmly on the brake pedal. Within a few seconds: a) the car violently lurched forward, and i instinctively pressed harder on the brake to keep from plowing into the line of vehicles in front of me; b) we heard the engine accelerating; and, c) i checked the tachometer and observed it steadily increasing from a normal idle speed to almost the maximum. I maintained control of the vehicle and prevented the engine speed from continuing to its peak by quickly shifting the car into park and turning it off. After approximately 20-30 seconds i restarted the car, and the idle was once again normal. I drove the car to the nearest dealership, approximately 3 blocks away. The car has now been in the possession of the toyota dealer for over two months, and their mechanics have been unable to replicate the event or find any record of the incident in the on-board computer.*ak

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
