 Description of the problemI was driving thru my neighborhood returning home after a heavy snowfall. I had my family in the car and to have a little fun i would give my sequoia a little extra gas as i would go around a corner to get the tires to spin a little. With traction control and anti-lock brakes it was nothing significant but the kids thought it was fun. As i neared my house i accelerated one last time before i was going to turn into my driveway. Unfortunately this time there was unintentional acceleration. I don't have the stock floor mats, but even so i tried using my foot to lift the gas pedal. That did not work. Since i was on a deadend residential street, i obviously did not want this condition to get out of control. When you are not in that situation it is easy to say that you need to put it in neutral, but when the situation is occurring you really only have time to react. I put the sequoia into park. Fortunately since it was a heavy snow, and since i was probably only going 10-15 mph the car came to a stop quickly but no one was thrust forward. I had warning lights on all over my dash. I turned the car off and restarted and the lights went off and the car seemed to function normally afterwards thankfully. I have not taken it in for the recall because the current recall for the 2005 sequoia says that it is a floor mat issue. It is not. I am so glad that you are pursuing further investigation into the real cause of this very potentially dangerous condition.

  • What is Recall?

    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.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
