Description of the problem	Vehicle accelerated of its own accord. On several succeeding occasions this toyota highlander has accelerated of its own accord. Vehicle has never crashed and after pulling over and placing vehicle in park, vehicle did not continue to accelerate. This toyota has been serviced 3-4 times for this problem, including a specialist from another state who traveled to baton rouge to make a thorough inspection involving 2-3 hours. Verdict was no visible or other problem detected. Two months ago there was another recall on this vehicle and toyota made the repair in the computer. Last week on may 20, 2014 i received another recall regarding this vehicle. This vehicle involves a steering column assembly containing a spiral cable with electrical connections involving the air bag. Should the driver air bag become deactivated, it could cause it not to deploy in the event of a crash which could increase the risk of injury to the driver in certain types of crashes. The remedy is currently unavailable and toyota will send a second owner notification letter when the remedy is available. Despite numerous letters and repeated telephone calls to toyota, i have not received any assistance to purchase a new toyota highlander that does not encompass these types of safety recalls. I chose not to join a group lawsuit because i knew this would be futile. Nonetheless, i am considering looking into hiring an attorney to pursue the replacement of this vehicle. Thank you for your attention.

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.
