Consumer Description

ON 4 OCCASIONS, OUR 2004 TOYOTA COROLLA ENGINE HAS RACED WHILE THE CAR WAS BEING BACKED UP AND MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE MOST SERIOUS INCIDENT WAS IN A PARKING LOT WITH MANY PEOPLE MILLING AROUND TO WATCH A FIREWORKS SHOW. THE HARDER I PUSHED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE FASTER THE ENGINE RAN. FORTUNATELY, THE BRAKES STOPPED THE CAR BEFORE I RAN OVER ANYONE. APPARENTLY, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT DOWN SO FAR THAT MY FOOT COULD HIT THE GAS PEDAL AT THE SAME TIME. ALSO, THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDALS ARE VERY CLOSE TOGETHER. *TR
