| Description of the problem | I was in a 2009 toyota camry that was involved in a crash. I was in a 35 miles zone, going uphill and well within the limit, but when i applied the brakes, the car didn't really slow down enough to not crash into the vehicle that didn't yield at the traffic signal. I didn't think much about it then, since the other driver admitted fault, but it could possibly have been because of a defect with the car's acceleration. Thankfully no one sustained any significant injuries since the airbags got deployed in the camry. I wouldn't have thought much of the incident, but the news of the recalls just makes me believe that the problem was with the car's acceleration and nothing else. |
