We were backing out of a parking place at the hot springs village walmart. The van accelerated on its own, then the brakes failed. No amount of pressure would stop the van. We stopped by hitting a parked car, doing some damage to it. We had the van towed to a body shop to have the exterior repaired. We were afraid to drive it. After being repaired, we had it towed to lander's in little rock where it was pronounced…

My wife was flooring the brake the whole time, with no effect. We contacted toyota, who sent out an…

We recently bought toyota sienna limited 2wd. The van started to accelerate on its own at a lower speed (from 10 to 35 mph). In addition, the van maintains its speed without using a cruise control. Furthermore, when the van is started, the ideal is very high like someone is pushing on the gas. We tried to contact the dealer in hickory, nc; however, nobody has contacted us back to make an appointment. *tr

In april 2009 the accelerator stuck on my 2009 toyota sienna van. The dealer failed to replicate the problem and neither the dealer nor toyota has made any progress to resolving. Now i see where a vast number of other toyota vehicles are similarly plagued and my confidence in the sienna is further eroded. Please help! Tw*

I had just gone through an automatic tollgate in the far left lane and began accelerating (and probably hit the 'resume' feature of the cruise control lever) in order to get…
