Consumer Description

WHILE PULLING OUT OF PARKING SPACE WITH VEHICLE IN REVERSE THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED CAUSING ME TO CRASH INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE PARKED IN THE SAME LOT.I AM AN ASSISTANT SERVICE MANAGER FOR A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND I AM TOTALLY AWARE OF SUDDEN ACCELERATION PROBLEMS RE RECENT TOYOTA PROBLEMS, MY MATS WERE NOT INVOLVED [AS WERE SOME FOUND WITH THE TOYOTA PROBLEMS] AND I AM 100% SURE THAT MY ,FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE AND NOT THE GAS PEDAL . THERE WERE NO INJURIES, HOWEVER THE REAR OF MY CAR HAS QUITE A,BIT OF DAMAGE.. I NOTICED A SLIGHT SIMILAR PROBLEM THE WEEK BEFORE BUT THAT DID NOT CONTINUE SO I DISCOUNTED IT. WHEN THE VEHICLE LEAVES THE COLLISION SHOP, I WILL HAVE MY TECHNICIAN FULLY CHECK THIS PROBLEM OUT, AS HE IS VERY FAMILIAR WITH THIS CONDITION RE: PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED TOYOTA PROBLEMS OF THE SAME NATURE. *TR
