 Description of the problem2008 toyota sequoia, prior to nationwide recall i have complained to toyota concerning unresponsiveness of the accelerator pedal, as well as other defects in vehicle and i continue to be ignored by both manufacturer and dealership, with dealership making excuses by saying things like different parts of the body where made in different factories causing there to be variants in the color of the vehicle bumper from the rest of the body, and that they are not that familiar with the new model sequoia since they haven't had them in the shop yet (excuse made in 2009). I made a written request in november in regards to what i call unresponsiveness of the accelerator pedal, when i push the pedal some times the car will accelerate rapidly other times it would do nothing then jump and accelerate without me putting access pressure on the pedal. I also reported on defects in leather seats and body color which is two toned by defect to name a few of the issues. The manufacturer called me, referred me back to the dealership and again the dealership will not do anything about the issues as minimizes them. Here we are in 2010 my car still accelerates when it wants to instead of when i want it to, i still have a car with exterior and interior defects and poor workmanship. And was insulted when the only thing i have received from toyota was a post card asking me to pay over $200 for a dvd to update my navigation center, which is adding salt to the wound that toyota has dug if anything toyota should be doing more then a temporary fix for customers and making us pay more money to fix their issues. The unpredictable acceleration is not from a sticky pedal i believe its electrical, possibly from other electrical devices, such as cell phone, garage door opener remote, gate remotes or door access remotes, all which i carry from time to time in my vehicle, however i cant put my life in danger testing out my theory. Something needs to be done soon, either replace the cars or pay up.
