Consumer Description

WHILE BACKING OUT OF MY GARAGE UNTO THE DRIVEWAY AND THEN INTO THE STREET, IT CAUSED A UNINTENDED ACCELERATION WHILE DRIVING IN REVERSE, CAUSING ALMOST A 90 DEGREE SPIN AND I HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES FOR IT TO FINALLY STOP. THIS HAPPENED ONCE ON 4/18/12 AND THEN AGAIN THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN ON 6/8/2012. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING I DID AND THEN WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN I KNEW THAT "SOMETHING WAS REALLY WRONG" AND WHEN I REALIZED THE DANGER OVER THAT WEEKEND I PARKED THE CAR IN MY GARAGE AND HAVE NOT DRIVEN IT SINCE. NOW I AM HEARING OF CAR DOOR PANELS CATCHING ON FIRE FOR 2007-2009 CAMRYS...I WILL NOT EVEN DRIVE THIS CAR, IT WILL BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP THIS WEEK. I WILL NOT BE KILLED OR KILL SOMEONE WAITING FOR SOMETHING HAPPEN. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER TOYOTA PRODUCT AGAIN. *TR
