NHTSA Complaint #10352234 — 2005 TOYOTA CAMRY

ACCLERATION FAILED ON 2005 CAMRY. COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED BY CARS BEHIND ME, HAD ENOUGH COAST TO GET TO NEXT EXIT. CALLED TOYOTA ABOUT THE REPAIR AND THEY SAID NO RECALL, AND THERE SHOULD BE. IF TOYOTA WOULD HAVE FIXED IT, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN OVER $1500.00, SO WE HAD IT TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THE REPAIR WAS $454.00 AND LOSS OF CAR FOR 7 DAYS. THE DIAGNOSIS WAS THE DIGITAL THROTTLE WAS BAD. YOU COULD PUSH THE PEDDEL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESPONSE. IMAGINE BEING OUT ON THE INTERSTATE AND THIS HAPPENS. I ONLY HAVE 84,500 ON THIS CAR AND THIS HAPPENS. VERY CONCENED ABOUT THIS ON THE CAMRY. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS AS WELL. DIAGNOSIS CHECK WAS RAN AND THE REPAIR SHOP WILL BE GLAD TO PROVIDE ANY INFORMATION YOU MAY NEED. JUST GLAD THAT I WAS NOT KILLED. *TR
