“On my 1999 Toyota solara I have to use high beams just to see, and my car went 90 MPH before slowing up,my handicapped son was so scared! Then it just cut off while driving. He had to coast to safety and now it needs a new motor !! Recalls about these problems pertain to the 1999 solara and are critical. This is twice life was endangered and Toyota is doing absolutely nothing to help resolve this very serious issue . I guess they wait till someone dies in an accident before Toyota does what they should do to keep the public safe!!! …”

“At times when I come to a stop (traffic, stop light, stop sign, etc.) or slow down in my 1999 Toyota solara I have trouble accelerating from the idle speed(s). When I press down on the gas pedal to accelerate it sticks. It won't move unless I apply more pressure which causes my car to jerk or peel out . This situation does not occur at every acceleration but does occur frequently. When this situation happens I do not feel safe. There has been a few occurrences where the roads where wet and I experienced this problem. …”

“I was driving my 1999 Toyota solara, home in the rain going 50 MPH when a street light turned yellow, I started to put on my brakes, but the car was not slowing down in time to stop before the intersection, so I took my foot off the brakes and just went through the yellow light. I felt that if I was driving any other one of my cars that I would have had plenty time to stop. When you take the foot of the gas on this car it does not slow down automatically like other vehicles. When I first got this 1999 Toyota solara I got a ticket for not stopping at a stop sign. …”
