| Description of the problem | My car is a 2007 camry xlev6, and was not listed as part of the toyota recall (it has locking mats). Pulled into driveway at my home, with foot on brakes as i touched auto garage door opener on visor. Car gear was in d. As i removed foot from brake to gas pedal to pull into garage, and lightly placed foot on accelerator, instantaneously engine revved, pedal went to floor, tach zoomed and auto jetted into garage. I immediately hit brakes with both feet, attempting to disengage transmission from d and put into n. Gear shift erratically plunged into r and car began to go backwards with engine throttle wide open. Again, with tires squealing, smoking & laying rubber, i tried to jam gearshift to n or p, and car jettisoned forward hitting garage wall at full force. With millisecond recovery, i held onto gearshift |
