| Description of the problem | My mother was involved in a collision in her toyota camry due to unexpected acceleration. The accident happened in her driveway while she was leaving home. The car, a 2004 model, was repaired ($8,000) at a nearby toyota dealership and recently returned. Toyota is not acknowledging a problem with their older model camries, so any repairs that were done to my mother's car were simply cosmetic. I am very concerned for my mother's safety. This is her only vehicle and she's now forced to drive a car that has demonstrated dangerous and unexpected acceleration issues. Please advise. (i am leaving her contact info, but i do not have access right now to the vin #. She can supply that info.) |
