Description of the problem | On april 15,2008 my wife was driving our 2004 toyota camry down our street when all of a sudden the car went into idle and wouldn't accelerate. I had a extended warranty still in effect since the car only had 42,393 miles on the car so i called my local toyota dealer and they replaced the accelerator pedal sensor. We haven't had a problem since but i am afraid that the replaced sensor may be defective and could cause unwanted acceleration/deceleration since it was replaced in 2008. I am concerned that the newly replaced accelerator sensor may not be safe either considering all the recent reports. Please use your power and get toyota to add the 2004 toyota camry to their recall list before other serious problems occur. Thanks for your serious consideration on this matter. Please let me know what you decide. |
