“2009 Toyota Highlander Hybrid. We have several safety related complaints: 1. My wife has never had an accident & to our recollection has never had a traffic ticket. She had a minor unintended acceleration and she tapped the truck in front of her. She took her foot off the brake & the car lurched forward. The dealer said it was not involved in a recall but the Toyota website says it is involved in a floor matt recall. I've thrown the matt in the rear cargo area. 2. Our garage is attached to our house with our bedroom above the garage. …”
