 Description of the problem2009 toyota rav-4driven by owner with wife as passenger. Coming down off ramp from two lane road to stop sign in order to turn onto a town street. Although braking hard, car failed to stop and engine decidedly accelerated. Driver able to turn corner and, since no car coming in his lane, was able to pull to side of road. Driver decided to proceed 2-3 blocks to a gas station. Drove slowly to station, pulled in, car refused to stop, in fact it was jerkily accelerating, and bumped into a car whose driver was putting gas into it. No damage to either car or persons. (pressed yes for crash, but was only going about 5 mph or less and driver's car pushed other car into a street.) driver was able to put car in neutral and car stopped. Driver had car towed to toyota dealer whose service manager, after telling driver his rav-4 was made in japan and not eligible as a recall car, finally agreed to have car tested. Nothing found and toyota has refused to replace any parts saying there is nothing wrong with car--to them the incidents did not truly occur. After testing, twice, driver picked up car and was driving home, had to stop for a school bus and while stopped felt engine surging forward again but was able to keep car steady by putting on brakes and put car in to neutral. Only drives car on back roads now. These three incidents are the only ones that have been experienced thus far.

    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.
