 Description of the problemSudden acceleration at highway speeds in 2006 toyota corolla - on 11-24-09 traveling south on highway 5 in california near buttonwilow at approximately 70-75 miles per hour in the fast lane, probably while on cruise control, car began to accelerate, hit the brake which had no effect, and if it had been on cruise control, it did not override the acceleration. I began to get closer to the car in front of me. I do not believe i initially tried to put the car into neutral. I turned off the car engine, the acceleration stopped, i hit the brake somewhat to get it down to a regular speed, put the car into neutral, started it while coasting, put it back into gear (manual transmission), and the crisis was over. Then, about an hour later, while on the grapevine portion of hwy 5 after the summit, it did the same thing with lesser traffic. I put it into neutral this time, hit the brake, slowed a little, put it back into gear and since then it has not occurred. See next paragraph. Over the past 3 years, their have been a number of additional occasions with a different issue where: 1) my foot has slipped off the brake onto the accelerator causing the engine to rev when in neutral in the driveway or a stoplight (i think because the pedals are small and very close to one another), and; 2) occasions when the accelerator has got stuck under the floormat when the floormat had slid forward causing the car to accelerate. Regarding the highway acceleration problem, this was not the case.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
