Description of the problem	I purchased my camry in 2007 from carson toyota in los angeles. On the second day after purchased my vehicle i already started experiencing electrical problems with my moon roof. On some occasions it would not close properly. Instead of pushing the close button, i had to tap it till it closes completely and careful not to over tap or it would open on its own again. This problem comes and goes and i've had the dealer checked my car back then. Overall, they gave me a hard time, first response i received from their mechanic was "that's how it is" so i argued with him that you don't tap a moon roof button hoping it would close properly. I also spoke to the sales agent who sold it to us and just gave the answer "it's a machine, sometimes it breaks down" which made me upset as i just bought the car a week before and if he told me that then, i would not have sunk $20,000 into it if it would start acting up on the second day! Anyway, they checked my moonroof and could not find anything wrong and told me to come back next week if it still didn't work. Unfortunately it stopped and in the past 2. 8 years this problem keeps surfacing and disappearing up to now. Then after living with this defect, i had the unfortunate experience of sudden acceleration when my gas pedal got stuck. I have bad back problems but with sudden panic was able to reach down and grab the carpet to loosen the pedal. Since then i have not felt safe in my car and i'm afraid to press on the gas pedal to hard. I'm concerned about the recall as it does not prevent the accelerations from happening and if i hit my brakes on a busy street and the car dies, i'm afraid of getting hit from behind or on the side especially with my son in the car. To summarize: i've had an acceleration and electrical problems with this toyota. If i may put in a request, toyota needs to take back this car and refund it's current worth at the time of the recall, so that we can purchase a safer family car.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
