Description of the problem | I was pulling into a parking space when the 4 door tacoma truck surged ahead hard enough to run over the curb before i got it stopped. I wasn't sure originally what happened but assumed that i must have pushed on the accelerator pedal as i was depressing the brake. But, after reading concerns about other tacoma problems with sudden acceleration i am rethinking what happened. I am 56 years old with an excellent driving record. I hope toyota takes this more seriously than it seems they have up to this point. |
