    Thank you in advance for your consideration of this complaint. My wife and children were nearly involved in a serious accident yesterday due to sudden uncontrolled acceleration in our minivan. Before you even consider that it may be drivers error, as evidenced by the myriad of discussion on this matter on the internet, the problem was confirmed by the tow truck driver and me; the van currently is stuck in full…

    5 months ago my son was driving my car and it suddenly accelerated and he could not get the car to stop even when he put on the brake. When i got the car, i started the engine and it lunged forward, but i put the car in neutral and the engine just raced.

    I was driving a 2001 toyota sienna. I turned left into a parking space and pulled forward. While still in drive, rather than stopping, the car continued to accelerate slowly, ran over a wooden parking barrier, and crashed into a concrete wall a few feet away. *tr

When the accelerator finally engages, the car lurches forward. This problem makes the vehicle frightening to drive. The first time we brought the car to the toyota service department (toyota of santa maria, california) about this issue was february…

    Left our home about 1045a. Put van into "drive" after pulling out of driveway in reverse. Unable to stop with the brakes at stop sign, approx 0.1 miles from start. Car began to accelerate on it's own, through the stop sign, through a right hand turn, through a left hand turn. Accelerator pedal was "stuck" and could not get it loose. Brakes had no effect, including attempts at emergency brake use. Went up a hill…
