Land Cruiser 6-cyl

  • miles
1996 Toyota Land cruiser. Consumer states undesired acceleration. The consumer stated he is certain that the sudden acceleration he experienced was not mechanical in nature but, rather a computer software or other electronic malfunction. The situation occurred at times when the accelerator pedal was not being used which made it impossible for the floor mat or linkage sticking to be involved. The consumer stated whatever the problem is, it does not trigger any codes in the vehicle's computer. On one occasion, the consumer almost crashed into a house when the engine failed to return to idle and the brakes were nearly unable to stop the vehicle.
