| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: On three different occasions, while driving my 2006 toyota avalon xls, i pressed down on the gas pedal to pass another vehicle and the gas pedal continued to depress on its own after i took my foot off of it. i stood on the gas pedal and it took about 5 seconds for the pedal to disengage after accelerating very rapidly. the third time, i had to shut off the ignition. i am afraid to press hard on the gas pedal at this point as it is a very frightening situation. a less experienced driver would get injured. i will not let anybody else drive my car because of this. the dealer had no explanation which i find very disturbing. help!! *jb |
