RUNAWAY TOYOTA'S..ACCELERATION      3-Nov-09 06:01 pm    
WATCH NIGHT LINE TONITE, ABC or view this link:

http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/RunawayToy...

This is my post to ABCNEWS;I had the same problem with my 2003 Corolla. About three years ago I put my foot on the brake to stop for a red light and the car accelerated full tilt though the intersection. I put my car in netural, pulled up the parking brake and then shut the car off. The dealer said they found nothing wrong and was driver error.. Just about 6 weeks ago it happened again out of the blue....I blamed myself since the previous time the dealer said it was drive error. NO WAY...CALL THE NHTSA AND REPORT THESE PROBLEMS TO THEM ...This is the only way complaints are tracked and the problem will be looked into. I called Toyota this morning they do not keep track of these types of complaints so it is the consumers responsiblity to report any problems to the NHTSA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
