 Description of the problemMy husband and i were on interstate 495 of the washington beltway sitting in a 3 mile backup where 5 lanes were merging into one. My foot was firmly on the brake leaving plenty of room from the car in front of me. All of a sudden i realized that the car was inching forward and the brake would not stop the acceleration. My husband realized what was happening and looked down and knew that my foot was firmly on the brake. All of a sudden, it just stopped as fast as it started. We came within inches of hitting the car in front of us. As i sat in that mess of a traffic jam and saw the amount of cell phones being used, it hit me. Did all these phones start that car to move? This matrix 2009 only has 22,700 miles on it but i will be taking it to the toyota dealership and toyota will be receiving a letter from me with the details. The recall work on the accelerator was done 2 months ago. I have also made a complaint to the dealership that the car seems to do something between 20 and 40 miles per hour when you are decelerating. I can't tell exactly what it is doing because it seems to jerk. The dealership put it on the computer and said nothing was wrong. It may be unrelated to the other problem but it is one more thing that i have noticed about this car. As a note, my husband and i have had toyotas forever and currently have a 2004 corolla and traded in the 2006 corolla for this matrix. We have never had any trouble whatsoever with our toyotas until now.
