I purchased a Toyota Camry 2009 in August of 2009; I notice immediately sudden acceleration several times while driving at average 55 mph in a highway with increasing in speed without stepping in the gas pedal; I could hear a low pitch sound like a cordless drill will sound like and eventually the speed will increase at first got really scared of the sudden acceleration specially when approaching cars in the highway, several times I had to step in the break pedal with force to kind of kill the boost. I also notice that in the surface street experience this jerkingness kind of like a wild bull that wants to push forward without inserting energy to move forward it happen several times while in stop signs or waiting to merge in the flow of traffic; again what I will do is forcefully step in the brake to stop the sudden acceleration. After driving the vehicle for more than 5 months I can predict the behavior and thankfully abort the sudden acceleration. But many times it does scares me specially when approaching cars ahead. I have a family of 5 with 3 small children. My spouse and kids do not want to ride in the car with me for the reasons stated above.
