Description of the problem | Two (2) separate incidents: both times, accelerator stuck and car had to be put into neutral and brake pedal and parking brake used to stop vehicle. Definitely nothing stuck on/under accelerator either time. Had to turn off the engine asap to stop the engine from racing to very high rpms. 1. Happened first when parallel parking the car. Speed < 5mph. Approx may, 2007. Clear weather. Approx 60 degrees. Happened again when car was restarted immediately. Car was parked for several hours. Started and operated ok when restarted after this break. 2. Happened again when approaching a stop sign from about 45 mph. Approx sept, 2008. Partly cloudy weather. No rain. Approx 60 degrees. Car was then parked for several hours. Operated ok when restarted after this break. Not sure of exact dates but it could be reconstructed from dealer records, if necessary. Took to two separate toyota dealers and was told by each: "... Nothing wrong with car". "can't duplicate the problem." "keep an eye on it..." |
