“When making a right turn and braking suddenly as in a busy parking lot, the engine will accelerate with a loud roar while my foot is solely on the brake and I franticly shift to neutral. Sometimes on a curved road with a traffic light the engine will accelerate while my foot is on the brake trying to slow the car for a red light. This has happend numerous times.”
NHTSA complaint #10875879, filed 2016-06, 4 miles“Bought my used 2000 Camry in aug, 2008. A few months later, gas pedal started sticking when I apply pressure to accelerate after making a stop. Sometimes it happens every time I make a stop in a given day. Other times, when I'm out and about, it does not stick when I accelerate. I have to give it a little push to accelerate from the stopped position. Happens about 70% of the time. Makes no difference if it's winter or summer.”

I called the dealer and brought the car in to be checked on august 04, 2004. The service department told me it was the fuel evaporator valve that needs to be replaced and would cost approximately $220, but they need to order the part, so we set another appointment to have the part replaced on august 10, 2004. …”
