| Description of the problem | Driving through town in my '08 camry at roughly 35-40 mph. I released my foot off the accelerator, and noticed that my car was not slowing down. I did not have the cruise on... Normally when i release my foot off the gas, the speed decreases quite rapidly. I thought nothing of it, and let it cruise, at the same speed, for about one mile, until i approached a stop sign. I pressed the brake, and everything seemed normal after that. Since that, this has happened a few different times, and when telling the local toyota employee, she said that she has "never heard of this problem, but can get me in to replace the accelerator in a few weeks for the most recent recall..." |
