 Description of the problemOn sunday, june 27 2010, we were traveling down a crowded canyon in our 2010 toyota rav4. (we previously brought the vehicle in to our local dealership pursuant to the safety recall.) my husband was driving while i was seated beside our toddler in the back seat. All of a sudden it sounded like somebody floored the accelerator. My husband became alarmed as he noticed the rpms immediately ramped up. We lurched forward. My husband's foot was not even on the accelerator. Fortunately, since my husband was about to brake, we were able to narrowly avoid a collision with the vehicle ahead of us. We contacted our local dealership to inspect the new toyota. They couldn't identify the cause of the incident, but they did indicate that it may have been a floor mat problem. We explained that the accelerator did not seem stuck and that we were traveling at an extremely slow rate of speed and then unintentionally accelerated. We continued to be concerned and so we contacted toyota. They explained that the device installed pursuant to the safety recall was intended to assist the accelerator in returning to an idle position. However, as we explained, the accelerator was in an idle position when this incident occurred. We continue to be scared to death to drive our new toyota rav4. This matter has recently been referred to arbitration.
