Most Recent Complaints
Note: even though this is a Toyota vehicle, it has a Subaru Boxer 4 engine. This issue has happened twice this year, once at a stoplight back on May 20 and again Oct. 16 while in line at a Chic Filet. In both cases pressing the brake harder helped keep me from moving forward. During the second instance, I put the car in neutral and it redlined for two more seconds before coming back down to normal. Until then, the tires were trying to grab and started squealing. Now I have also tried to press the brake with my left foot and press the gas with my right and the fail safe does indeed kick in and prevent the car from engaging the tires. But these two cases my right foot was firmly on the brake and I had been sitting idel for 10 seconds or longer before the sudden acceleration started. As I write this review, my car is in the shop getting new brakes and I've askd them to review the EDR. If there is a way to update this post I will with any additional findings. With my car sitting so low to the ground, I could have been injured as the car in front of me was an SUV sitting higher than my front end. It could also have given occupants of that vehicle whiplash potentially.
