NHTSA Complaint #10894348 — 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY

JULY 2016 I WAS PULLING AWAY FROM MY BANK ATM AT APPROX.2-5 MPH IN MY 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY WHEN THE CAR TOOK OFF. THE CAR ACCELERATED SO FAST. I HIT THE BRAKES BUT IT DIDN'T STOP THE CAR. I MISSED A CAR AND A VAN, WENT UP OVER THE PARKING BLOCK AND HIT A POLE. THAT STOPPED ME! I HAD 2 PASSENGERS IN THE CAR. SOMEHOW NO ONE GOT HURT. I HAD 3 BLOWN TIRES AND THE RIGHT SIDE WINDOW BROKEN OUT WITH DAMAGE TO THAT DOOR. THE FRONT BUMPER WAS PULLED FROM THE BODY. THE CAR HAS DAMAGE TO THE TIE ROD AND WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED. FRONT END ALIGNMENT WILL ALSO HAVE TO BE DONE. MY CAR HAD TO BE TOWED HOME. AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP FROM WHICH I BOUGHT IT FROM BUT IT'S BEEN OVER 10 DAYS AND SEVERAL PHONE CALLS WITH NO RESPONSE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH 2011 CAMRY'S FROM THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ. WHEN WILL SOMETHING BE DONE ABOUT THIS, AFTER A DEATH? THE PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED ASAP.
