Consumer Description

I LEASE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. I EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHEN DRIVING UP A HILL. BECAUSE I WAS ON A HILL I GAVE THE CAR A LOT OF GAS. HOWEVER, THE GAS PEDAL SEEMED TO GO FURTHER THAN I INTENDED AND THE CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE. I PLACED THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND HIT THE BREAKS, WHICH STOPPED THE CAR WITHOUT INCIDENT. I HAD TO TAP THE GAS PEDAL A FEW TIMES TO GET IT TO DISENGAGE. TOYOTA APPLIED THE GAS PEDAL RECALL 'FIX' A FEW DAYS LATER. HOWEVER, I AM CONCERNED THAT THEY HAVE NOT CORRECTLY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE GAS PEDAL WENT DOWN FURTHER THAN I PRESSED IT, MEANING THERE MAY BE SOME ELECTRONIC OR OTHER PROBLEM RATHER THAN 'STICKING.' I KNOW YOU HAVE MANY SUCH COMPLAINTS, BUT I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO DETERMINE IF TOYOTA'S REMEDY IS ADEQUATE. THANK YOU. *TR
