Consumer Description

THIS IS EXTREMELY URGENT! I OWN A 2009 TOYOTA PRIUS WITH NO FLOOR MATS IN IT AT ALL AND THE GAS PEDAL STUCK ONCE A FEW DAYS BEFORE THE DRIVER IN CALIFORNIA(2008 PRIUS)WAS STUCK SPEEDING ON HIGHWAY AND STOPPED BY POLICE. AFTER SEEING THAT STORY, I WAS COMPELLED TO SHARE MY STORY. TOYOTA REFUSED TO HELP ME SAYING MY YEAR WASN'T IN RECALL LIST. IT HAPPEN THE SAME WAY IT HAPPEN TO HIM IN CALIF. I WAS ACCELERATING ON HIGHWAY TO PASS DRIVER AND IT STUCK FOR 20 SECONDS THEN UNSTUCK. I SLAMMED ON BRAKES WHICH DIDN'T HELP MUCH. I STARTED GOING UPWARDS TO 70 MPHS WITH BRAKED TO THE FLOOR. THERE WERE NO FLOOR MATS IN CAR AT THE TIME. I'M AFRAID I WILL BE THE NEXT PRIUS THAT MAY CAUSE ACCIDENT OR EVEN KILL SOMEONE. PLEASE HELP! TOYOTA REFUSES TO SEE MY CAR! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO...MAYBE I SHOULD GO TO THE NEWS. I'M SCARED! *TR
