Description of the problem | My car experienced sudden & strong engine surging - the pedal did not seem to be involved. Yet, required driving at slow speeds and the brake had to be applied very strongly to control the speed. It is a 2009 camry, but not on the toyota recall list (this was confirmed w/the toyota dealership). The toyota dealership could not replicate the problem, found no indication of it in the computer/electronic logs in the car. They had their service manager & quality control managers check it. No one can identify the problem. Yet, it was real and quite frightening. I am concerned and believe that there are problems other than the gas pedal issue currently being investigated. |
