| Description of the problem | On september 22, 2009 my 2002 toyota corolla ce suddenly accelerated into my garage wall causing the car to be totaled (loss of over 7,000) per farmers insurance. [xxx] at that time was unaware of any issues with toyota's - the floor mat situation was just coming out. I reported this to toyota on 10/2/09 incident [xxx]and they had said there were no problems reported on the 2002 corolla's. I did repurchased a new 2010 and now with all the issues i feel unsafe when driving this car but am left like many others stuck with it. Toyota had a good reputation and i wish this problem would be resolved. Just wanted to let you know so this will somehow help in the ongoing search for an answer.
