My 2005 Toyota Camry has had no problems and has been maintained as recommended for 5 years up to the date of the accident which occurred on January 17, 2010. I was pulling into a parking spot at approximately 1 mile per hour, lightly touched the brake and instead of stopping the car lunged forward (self-accelerated) up over a concrete block onto a sidewalk and came to a stop when it hit a heavy metal railing. An 8' section of the rail was broken off and fell 4' away from the car. I reported the accident to the police and to my insurance company. A tow truck driver got the car moved, checked the brakes - which he said were working properly - and suggested that the accident may have been caused by a stuck throttle. Neither the floor mats or the gas pedal caused the problem. The damage to the car came to $2200. 00 but nothing was done to fix the problem because Toyota has not recalled this year vehicle and the forensic mechanic who inspected it felt that it was a computer problem and the solutions offered by Toyota would not address the random acceleration problem.
The 2005 Toyota Camry with just over 40,000 miles on it all of a suddend died while I was driving on the road. I was forced to put the vehicle in park and restart it. This occured every time I accelerated after the initial incident. I took the vehicle to the Toyota dealership ,and they reported that the throttle body and actuator were stuck. I had oil changed as the manufacturer recommended, and felt that this was a problem that a two year old car should not be having. I was forced to replace the throttle body and actuator at my own expense as thewarranty expired approximately 5,000 miles prior to this incident.
