Description of the problem | Tl*the contact owns a 2004 toyota camry. While approaching a parking space, the vehicle accelerated without intention. Consequently the vehicle crashed into a wall. The accelerator pedal was stuck, so the engine continued to rev. The bumper and the front-end of vehicle was damaged. The warranty company towed the vehicle to the dealer for inspection. The technician concluded that the floor-mats caused the failure. He then added that this was a common failure with his model type. However he speculated that the technician incorrectly diagnosed the vehicle, because the floor-mats were very far away from the accelerator pedal. The vehicle was then towed to his mechanic, and repaired at an expense of $1200. 00. The failure mileage was 55000. The current mileage was unknown. |
