Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2006 TOYOTA TACOMA. I HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT THE THROTTLE MECHANISM. ABOUT A YEAR AGO AT A STOP SIGN, I EXPERIENCED THE MOTOR RACING AND VEHICLE ATTEMPTING TO LURCH FORWARD. I HAD TO PRESS VERY HARD ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO REMAIN IN PLACE. AFTER READING AN ARTICLE FROM THE LA TIMES ABOUT THE TOYOTA THROTTLE PROBLEMS, I CALLED MY TOYOTA DEALER. HE DENIED THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE CARPET/GAS PEDAL FIX IS NOT ADDRESSING THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE PROBLEM. *TR
