Accelerator Stuck problems of the 2010 Toyota Camry

On my morning commute I had to initiate a fast acceleration by depressing the accelerator pedal fully to gain speed and upon taking my foot off the pedal I noticed it remained depressed fully and continued to accelerate. This situation had happened a year prior in a similar case where I had put "the pedal to the metal" and the accelerator pedal stuck to the floor. Slamming on the brakes allowed the accelerator to disengage and operate as normal. The instance today occurred on a city street while driving straight; max acceleration was engaged at around 5mph and my top speed reached 40mph before I was able to regain control of the accelerator pedal.

On January 18, 2010 my wife and I bought a Toyota Camry, se model from arlington Toyota, jacksonville, FL. A few months after we bought this vehicle, Toyota company recalled this vehicle model due to the possibility that the accelerator gets jammed on the floor mat, which may cause the vehicle to accelerate unintentionally. We took our Toyota Camry to arlington Toyota on July 8, 2010 to resolve the recall problem. We have been driving this vehicle and had been running fine until an accident happened. On June 27, 2012, about 7:00 p. M. , my wife and I went to tire plus car care, just west of hodges blvd on atlantic blvd and about a mile from where we live. My wife and I were approaching a parking space in front of the tire plus car care. As she was slowly parking, an unintended acceleration occurred at the speed of about 40 ? 50 miles an hour hitting the curb, the tree and irrigation pipe on the mound of landscape in front of tire plus car care. At home, after we left our vehicle to tire plus to assess the damages on my car, I discussed the accident scenario with my wife. I asked her if she could have possibly hit the accelerator while parking and she firmly said no. Her reaction to the sudden acceleration, being so close to the parking curb, was to stop the car and therefore she would have just hit the brake firmly as her right foot was already on the brake while attempting to park. The Toyota vehicle recall that might have been turned-in to resolve the accelerator getting stuck on the floor-mat may still have problem of unintended acceleration. My wife and I would like to share and escalate our experience so we could hopefully warn other owners and help prevent possible serious accident that may occur to consumers by a recalled vehicle that unintentionally accelerate.

While parking my 2010 Camry at the grocery store, I slowly turned into the parking space and my car suddenly accelerated jumping the curb and hitting a cement surrounded light pole. The air bags did not deploy and I was not noticeably injured. The car had just had the replacement pedal installed on March 2, 2010 as ordered by the recall. The vehicle was towed to avondale Toyota in avondale, arizona and is currently awaiting a representative from Toyota to inspect it on mon. March 8th before any work will be done. Property damage only to the vehicle. We were told at the dealership that the airbags only deploy after 20 miles per hour. We have never before had a problem with the accelerator sticking.

After Toyota pedal recall completed, had issue 2x with accelerator sticking and actually causing the gas pedal to be sluggish (would not accelerate).

Problem: 2010 Toyota 4 dr Camry: I am 81 years old. After checking with the new jersey dealer where I bought the this car 51/2 months ago, I was told my VIN # was ok for no problem with the gas pedal sticking, but I should go in for the mat/gas pedalproblem. I did & was told it was done. On 2/16, I was pulling into a spot at cvs. I took my foot off of the gas pedal and started to put the foot on the brake when the car suddenly flew up forward over the cement curb and into the dirt and bushes which, thank god stopped the car. I will never get back into my 2010 Toyota Camry again. They hauled the car to their dealership and got me a Honda rental. I made an appointment with general mgr. . He told me so far they had not been able to find anything in the car. I told him I would never drive that car again and my sons had told me no matter what these people said I was not to drive it. I explained along with never being able to drive that car again I would not now purchase another Toyota. He told me they could give me $17,000. Refund leaving me to eat $10,916. On a car I have had for 5 â½ months and had only 2,091 miles on it. I was told to talk to someone at their corporate office in CA and they offered me nothing but a slick ?your word against mine? nothing help. I could see the writing on the wall I went out the next day, bought a Ford fusion and drove away in my new car. I am contacting you not only because Toyota did not try to assist me with my problem, but also I have been having nightmares about the thousands of people who were told their VIN # had no gas pedal problem as I had been told and may find out that is not true - as I did.

I am not a Toyota owner, however I believe I am the victim of a Toyota accident. Yesterday, my car was parked outside of my office at around 10:45 am I hear a crash and see my vehicle (2008 chevy equinox) pick up off the ground. Vehicle owner phuong vo, driving a 2010 Toyota Camry had slammed into the back of my car, and damaged it from front to back, including removing my back axel completely. When I came outside, there was an additional truck following this Camry. Apparently the Camry had hit this persons car, he got in it to follow the driver, and then witnessed the driver hit an additional 5 cars before crashing into mine and coming to a stop! now I am very upset because, not only does this Toyota driver not have enough insurance to cover my damages, but his insurance company is refusing to pay for my damages and provide me with a rental vehicle. I did nothing wrong. Just went to work yesterday, and now I am out of a $500 deductible, and my vehicle is expected to take weeks before being repaired. Furthermore, the st louis police department had reported that when an officier tried to move the vehicle it seemed as if the gas pedal was stuck to the floor.

I purchased a 2010 Toyota Camry in July 2009. I was returning home from visiting relatives in NJ. In early August. I was on a stretch of highway leading into 290 worchester from the mass pike auburn,when I accelerated to pass a semi truck and the accelerator stuck. I reached a speed of 85mph, so I punched the pedal with my feet and it dislodged. I reported the incident to the prime Toyota dealership in saco,me. 's service dept. In Nov. When I brought in the vehicle for a routine oil change. They had me remove the floor mats. I recently had the recall repair, so far there has not been another incident, but I am still leery about accelerating quickly and have not attempted to test pressing the pedal to the floor.
