general problems of the 2006 Toyota Camry

Driving at slow speed. Tried to slow at an intersection and when I hit brakes, the car unexpectedly accelerated and I narrowly avoided a head on crash!.

2006 Toyota solara suddenly accelerated when leaving a parking lot space. Started a chain reaction ultimately involving the solara and four other cars. No personal injury since all cars except the solara were parked. Estimate $35-40k in property damage. After repairs, took the solara to a Toyota dealer who said the problem was a carbon build up in the throttle system.

Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6) Toyota acceleration complaint March 24, 2010 odi number 10321792. Safety issue - 2006 Toyota Camry le on going problem - the vehicles engine will rev up and lurch forward while at a dead stop. Engine will accelerate and lurch forward on its own. Sensation appears as if there is another vehicle directly behind ours pushing it. Engine is specifications up to standards. It manifests at all speeds, but more noticeable at low speeds and at stops. My wife was stopped and idling at a traffic stop sign on east vestal facing eastbound at and the intersection of pleasanton road here in san antonio, texas. She was waiting to make a right hand turn onto northbound pleasanton road. While she was stopped a northbound bicyclist traveling on the sidewalk to her left began crossing the street. He was riding upon his bike and when his bike was right in front of the vehicle the automobile lurched forward and knocked him down. My wife had her foot on the brake however; this incident occurred very quickly that she could not react fast enough to prevent the automobile from hitting the bicyclist. The bicyclist assured my wife that he was not injured. He had checked his bicycle and it was not damaged and that the police did not need to be called. The accident so upset my wife that she ended going back home and not going to work that day. The contacted the Toyota service technician assured us that this activity was normal for Toyotas. This is why I am reporting this problem. This problem needs to be surfaced and addressed. I am sure that there are other Toyota Camry owners that are suffering from the same problem as we are. I have today contacted Toyota corporation here in the united states and the company has not addressed my concern or even acknowledges receiving my complaint. The bottom line is that I want this problems fixed. Thank you for your attention. [xxx].
