Description of the problem | Entering my driveway at slow speed - approximately 5 mph to drive up a small incline. Engine began to race and vehicle accelerated and crashed into garage. The garage door destroyed and contents of garage destroyed contents of garage actually stopped the vehicle which is a 2009 camry. Vehicle mat had been removed due to toyota's recent letter of recall, therefore that was not the cause of extremely rapid acceleration. An inspection was performed on the vehicle by a toyota engineer and no problems were found. The consumer stated the recall was performed on february 6, 2010 and the engineer performed the inspection on february 24,, 2010. So therefore, he wasn't going to find a problem, since the recall had already been performed. Updated ivoq 10/27/10*jb |
