| Description of the problem | Yesterday i was pulling into my sisters driveway which is on a downslope incline and my car seemed to accelerate to the point that i has to stomp on the brakes very hard to stop the car. She has a carport in which her car was parked and i thought i was going to crash into the carport and her car. It was very frightening and it has never happened before. I have an appointment tomorrow to take the car to the toyota dealership. It happened so fast and so unexpected i'm not sure what really happened, only what i felt like happened. I heard a scrubbing noise as i was pushing on the break pedal and i thought maybe pushing on the brake so hard had caused that. Thank-you for your attention on this matter. |
