Consumer Description

WE WERE RIDING ON A COBBLE STONE STREET GOING VERY SLOW IN A TOURIST AREA OF SAVANNAH, GA. OUR 2002 TOYOTA CAMRY, SUDDENLY ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL. WITH THE BRAKE FULLY ENGAGED WE SKIDDED DOWN THE STREET IN SHOCK. IT LASTED ABOUT 4 TO 5 SECONDS AND THANKFULLY THERE WERE NO PEOPLE OR OTHER CARS IN THE WAY. I ESTIMATE WE WENT ABOUT 50 YARDS. IT STOPPED AS SUDDENLY AS IT STARTED. WE THEN CALLED THE POLICE TO REPORT WHAT HAPPENED AS WE WERE VERY SHOOK UP. WE REPORTED THIS TO THE TOYOTA DEALER WE BOUGHT THE CAR FROM. THEY HAD IT TOWED TO THEIR DEALERSHIP. THEN THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR AND THEY WOULD CALL TOYOTA FOR FURTHER DIRECTION. I AM WAITING FOR THEM TO CALL ME BACK. *TR
