| Description of the problem | Got a toyota camry le april 3rd 2010, today is april 9th, i was entering a parking slot between 2 parked cars (drivers were inside their cars waiting for the shift to start), the car did an unintended sudden acceleration as i was turning into the parking spot, was about to hit the car on my left, luckily hit the brakes in time. The driver in the parked car on the left was looking at me like i was some crazy guy who didn't know how to drive. Note to readers- i had not taken the issue seriously, didn't even know what exactly was wrong with toyotas, went and got one because they were having good deals, but you don't take it lite, it's a serious issue, you'll feel it only when it happens to you, i'm going to return the car tomorrow, not sure how much i end up spending. |
