| Description of the problem | 2006 toyota camry. Consumer states unintended acceleration *tgw the consumer stated while riding with her husband, a noise was heard that sounded like a click; similar to the sound of switching on a light that seemed to trigger the unwanted acceleration that immediately followed. Her husband reacted very quickly to get the vehicle under control. He had both feet on the brake pedal which had no effect on stopping the vehicle. The consumer then put the gear into neutral, but to no avail. The last effort was to use the emergency brake and put the vehicle into park. That, along with an uphill grade brought the vehicle to a stop with a ratcheting sound which was believed to be the result of the transmission already in park. *jb updated 10/20/11.*jb |
