NHTSA Complaint #11073827 — 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK MY CAR STARTED DOING 50 MPH WITHOUT MY FOOT ON ANY PEDAL. I HAD TO RIDE THE BRAKE TO KEEP IT WITHIN THE SPEED LIMIT OF 20 IN THE SCHOOL ZONE AND THEN 35 ON THE ROAD. WHEN I ARRIVED AT A RED LIGHT THE CAR TRIED TO MOVE FORWARD EVEN WITH THE BRAKE PRESSED ALL THE WAY DOWN. I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND THE ENGINE STARTED REVVING. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND STILL HAD THE SAME REVVING AND PULLING. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND PUT IT IN PARK AND THE CAR KEPT REVVING. I TURNED IT OFF AND KEPT IT OFF FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON I STILL HAD THE SAME ISSUE. I CAREFULLY DROVE THE CAR BACK HOME (ABOUT A MILE TOTAL TRIP) RIDING THE BRAKE THE WHOLE TIME TO KEEP THE CAR FROM GETTING AWAY FROM ME. NO MAT WAS NEAR THE PEDALS, I TRIED MOVING TO A LOWER GEAR, I MADE SURE ALL CRUISE CONTROLS WERE OFF, NOTHING HELPED. IT WAS THE MOST TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD WHILE DRIVING!
