I was slowly pulling into a parking space adjacent to the putting green at my condominium. My foot was on the brake pedal when the car suddenly surged forward, jumped the curb, and hit a concrete bench placed at the edge of the green. The brake did not work. The impact was so forceful it destroyed the bench, and the car had to be jacked up to get it off a large piece of concrete. Thank goodness the golfer was not close to the car. The car was subsequently repaired for $2,410. 58 in damages. Being afraid that this "sudden acceleration" would occur again, I traded the car in for a different brand. Because of "frame damage" (which goes to show the force and speed of impact), I only received $10,000 for my trade-in instead of the $14,000 blue book/edmunds/nada value.

I was slowed pulling into a parking spot. The car suddenly gave a roaring sound and headed full speed ahead. I assume I must have let my foot slip onto the gas but I'm not sure that is what happened. I thought I'd report to see if anyone else's incurs a problem. I was assured the sudden acceleration problem did not exist on the 2011's. The force was so hard, it knocked a Toyota truck in front of me out of the parking space and into the street. It was not drivable and had to be towed. I also took out the van beside me. My Camry suffered bumper and lights damage and a slight ripple to the hood. The damage was unbelievably slight considering the damage to the other two vehicles.
