Description of the problem	Our family purchased a brand new 2004 toyota sienna awd and had countless issues with it . The most serious issue was - random unpredictable acceleration responses. We contacted toyota canada & japan in 2003. There is absolutely 100% no doubt in my mind, or my wife's mind, that the toyota product line has something wrong electronically in their accelerator pedal or transmission sensors - or the software that interfaces with them. We did not have sticky gas pedals or floor mat issues - we had a vehicle that didn't operate the way we were asking it to. The vehicle never consistently responded to the actual pressure being placed on the accelerator pedal. A light press in parking lot driving would sometimes result in what felt like full throttle acceleration and when trying to turn across traffic at an intersection, or during merging - the vehicle would hesitate and then move the vehicle when it was no longer safe to do so.. Toyota said " they did not consider this behavior a safety issue " it was only " a nuisance problem " . First our dealership ignored the problem. Then they said " my wife didn't teach the vehicle to drive properly - it had a smart learning transmission you know " . They finally admitted there was a problem after we continued to voice our concern over several near miss incidents with the vehicle . In one incidence , while on the highway using cruise control - the vehicle unexpectedly accelerated full throttle into a corner at over 140 kph forcing us onto the shoulder and almost off the road . It was a nerve shattering experience. Our toyota dealer finally admitted a similar acceleration problem existed in the camry / corolla lines and that it was transmission software related . After several months of the run around from toyota with no fix in sight - being told by the owner of the dealership to drive the vehicle in 3rd gear to minimize the surges until a software fix was created - we walked away from the vehicle.

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?
