“I attempted to stop my vehicle at the end of a driveway when I saw fast approaching cross traffic. My engine began racing and my brakes failed, carrying my vehicle about 20 feet into the intersection as I helplessly pressed down on the brake pedal. Fast approaching vehicles barely missed me. I barely escaped violent death.”

“Engine has low (RPM) 650-670 when stopped with brake applied on slight incline when brake is released car rolls backward before gas can be applied. The car directly behind me if too close, can be hit by my car rolling backwards idle RPM should be increased too 750-800 to rectify this problem Toyota said they can not adjust the idle RPM.”

“On may 25, 2017, while pulling into parking space at a shopping center, my 2014 Toyota Camry accelerated out of control thru the parking space without me pressing the gas pedal. I pressed the brakes and it did not stop the car. My car continued to travel at a high rate of speed thru the parking lot embankment and went thru brushes/shrubs which is where the car stopped after it blew a tire and was stopped by the shrubs. Due to the damage under the car it was a total loss.”
