Consumer Description

I OWN A 2008 TOYOTA TACOMA TRUCK. I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE THROTTLE SURGING WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONER IS TURNED OFF. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I STILL CONTINUED TO HAVE PROBLEMS BUT THEN, ON MAY 11, 2010, I WAS GOING TO PARK THE TRUCK BEHIND OUR MOTORHOME WHICH HAD A CAR CADDY ATTACHED TO IT. AS I TURN INTO THE SPACE, THE THROTTLE STUCK AND I RAN INTO THE CAR DOLLY. I IMMEDIATELY SHOVED INTO NEUTRAL AND TURNED IT OFF. MY CAR DOLLY TOOK THE IMPACT. I LOOKED DOWN TO MAKE SURE MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE AND IT WAS. I THEN HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP ON MAY 12 AND IT HAS BEEN SITTING THERE SINCE. *TR
