| Description of the problem | The gas got stuck on our 2007 toyota camry and the car accelerated on its own. We informed our dealer when we went for the scheduled oil change, and they insured that everything was ok. Now, with the new toyota developments, we went back to a dealership to receive the modifications on my gas pedal. But they said that my gas pedal model is one that does not have any problems and does not need any modifying. They did claim to have sanded down the pedal to prevent it from getting stuck under the floor mat, and they also said that they installed new software that would override the gas pedal when i slam on the brakes if it did ever get stuck and begin to accelerate freely. When we asked for information about this software, none could be provided. Also, when we spoke to our original dealer, they denied that we ever reported this incident. |
