| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Sudden acceleration for the third time in this vehicle. driving on a mountainous road about 30 mph. truck moved to the side going up an incline for my husband to pass him. he accelerated and the gas pedal "stuck". applied the brakes with no disengaging of the gas pedal. turned the key off and on so as not to lose the power steering. this continued for several minutes. when we were on a straightaway, he turned the key off and finally the gas pedal disengaged. two times previously toyota has replaced the cruise control. this is not a cruise control issue. this is a gas pedal issue. i was told previously the mat was under the gas pedal. this is hardly the problem. the brakes were again red hot when my husband tried to stop the truck. we will be in touch with toyota again this a.m. this vehicle is a death trap and needs to be put down! *nm see also odi 10158925 and 10149327 *dsy |
