 Description of the problemVehicle: 2006 toyota rav 4 problem: stuck accelerator date of incident: december 24, 2009 my wife was leaving work on the 24th of december. Our car was parked facing uphill. As she was leaving her parking space, she depressed the accelerator slightly and the car "took off" on its own. She ended up hitting a car on the other side of the road, then going over to the other side, over a sidewalk, snow bank and then hitting a building. I have reported this incident to toyota who went to my local dealer to check it out. They claim that they could not find anything and sent a letter to my house stating that fact. The weather conditions that day were sloppy snow. As mentioned, the car was facing uphill so the slippery conditions actually acted in her favor. I wrote up a full report with photos that i sent to both toyota and state farm. I would be happy to e-mail this report to you as well. Our rav 4 had a little over 51,000 miles on it when the accident occurred. It is a 4 cylinder, automatic.
