| Description of the problem | Project: nhtsa hotline center case: toyota accelerators case number: 202302 date: 11/04/2009 time: 17:57:22 creation date: 11/04/2009 creation time: 09:48:50 from: adrienne witherspoon comments: i own a 2004 toyota camry and there is another accelerator safety problem that needs to be investigated also. Within the last 6 months, i paid nearly $700 to replace the accelerator sensor in my car because while driving the accelerator would not allow me to control the speed. I would try to increase speed and could not. You can check my repair record at mark jacobson toyota in durham, nc. I have a friend with a 2005 toyota who recently paid over $1,000 to replace her accelerator at the toyota dealership in charleston, sc. For the same reason, a stiff or non-responsive accelerator while driving. |
