While driving on a two lane highway at approximately 50 mph, I began to slow down as I approached a car pulled off to the right hand side. My car accelerated. I had both feet on the brake. The car continued to accelerate. I'm guessing it hit 80 mph. A few terrifying seconds later, the car was back under control. No accident. No damage. I brought the car to a local, reputable garage and they couldn't find anything wrong with it. I traded the car in later in the week and informed the lia Honda salesperson about my experience and told him the car should not be resold but should be sold for parts/scrap.

We received a recall letter on our 2008 Camry due gas pedal problem. We took the Camry in for the recall. The dealer shaved the pedal down. This is the fix for the run away Camry's. the fix is very sloppy and makes the car uncomfortable to drive due the pedal being so short now. I call Toyota they said that was the approved fix. They did give me a case number and said someone would call in 3 days. The fix seems to be a lot more unsafe now than before.

At 75 mph the car will un-lock the converter and down shift to maintain speed and over accelerates by 5mph and stays in the lower gear for considerable time then de-celerates the throttle and does not up shift, then up shifts and locks the converter at the same time creating a sudden jolt and takes 1/2 mile to resume set speed unless there another hill.
