 Description of the problemWhile backing into a parking spot after applying the brake the vehicle jerked back several times no mater how hard i applied the brake i could not stop it. I was going about 5 miles or less per hr. The same thing happened later the same day in my driveway. Twice in one day also on another day my wife was heading down the driveway and applied the brakes and the vehicle would not stop no matter how hard she applied the brakes it finally stopped about 40 feet later in the middle of the road. She was very scared, thankfully no car was coming when this happened. We took it to toyota and of course they found nothing they told us we hit the wrong peddle (three different times) which we did not. And so did the thousands of other people that have complained and then hurried us on our way. How many times does this have to happen to people before toyota is forced to do something? From what i have read it seems to have started when car company's went from accelerator cables to computer sensors and electric motors. So all i can do is file a complaint and hope the everybody else that has encounters this problem will do the same so maybe if enough people do something will be done. We were going to trade it in but doing research we can't seem to find a newer vehicle that hasn't had this complaint. So i guess we are stuck with it and all my wife and i can do is say a little prayer each time i get behind the wheel.
