 Description of the problemMy husband had just pulled his 2004 toyota camry into a school parking lot at a slow rate of speed. He stopped with foot on the brake, and shifted into reverse as he was going to back into a parking space. Suddenly, the accelerator surged at a high rate of speed without warning and he hit the back of the school building at a great rate of force. The engine stopped but the air bag failed to deploy. Extensive damage was done to the school building ($19,000) and to his vehicle ($9000.) car had to be towed to auto body dealership. This was the first incident that the car's accelerator surged. Auto body shop repaired the body of the car, but no repair to accelerator at all. We had no explanation as to why the car accelerated at such a high rate of speed. Now that we have become aware of all the other toyotas that have had acceleration failures, we are now filing this complaint. This accident could have been much more serious, as children were coming in and out of the building from a sports event. Thankfully no one was hurt. We believe that toyota needs to go back much further on their recalls on toyota camrys than 2007, since clearly toyota camrys have had this acceleration problem at least as far back as 2004, probably earlier.

    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.
