Consumer Description

THIS IS THE FOURTH INCIDENT, AND THE FOURTH TIME I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER WHO CANNOT FIND OR DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. I HIT THE BRAKES, AND INSTEAD OF SLOWING OR STOPPING THE CAR, THE CAR ACCELERATES. ONE TIME, IT DAMAGED A TIRE, THIS TIME IT HAPPENED WHILE MERGING ON A HIGHWAY AND NEARLY CAUSED A DANGEROUS COLLISION. THIS LAST INCIDENT, I WAS TRAVELING AROUND 30 MPH. THE TWO TIMES BEFORE, I HAD BEEN ATTEMPTING TO COME TO A STOP FROM 25-30 MPH, AND THE FIRST TIME I HAD BEEN TRAVELING BETWEEN 30-35 MPH WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO BREAK TO AVOID ANOTHER VEHICLE SWITCHING LANES. TOYOTA DIDN'T EVEN BOTHER TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG.
