| Description of the problem | I am a ase certified master tech and mechanic of 15 years. I owned a auto repair shop for 5 years and have since returned the vehicle to toyota lease. My 2006 toyota tundra would accelerate on its own at times. To stop it i would have to turn off the key, pull over and then restart it. Being a master technician i assure you it was electronic in nature. In no way was it a floor mat or accelerator pedal stuck. I did take it in for repair and was told there was no problem found. It did happen in the same location 3 times and could have been caused by emi. Again it was electrical in nature, there is no doubt of this. I do not own it any longer and hold no negative feelings towards toyota. |
