| Description of the problem | Approximately three weeks ago i had the accelerator recall repair work completed on my 2007 toyota tundra, after, i noticed randomly while i was stopped at a light, intersection etc. I would accelerate the truck would feel as if some one pushed the gas pedal, and then hit the brake. It started out very mild. And i though it may have just been me causing it. On 11 may 2010 while taking my 4yr old to daycare it did it again. But this time it was very hard. The unintended acceleration caused my head, as well as my sons to go back and hit our head rest. The truck accelerated three times in a row. It was as if we were riding a bumpy roller coaster ride. |
