On 3/10/2018 around 7:25pm when I was very slowly pulling into my driveway my car accelerated suddenly, I was not pressing gas pedal and I was able to stop barely before it hit my garage door by stepping very hard on brakes. It would have been a major deadly accident if there were any children around. I thought Toyota had addressed this issue but apparently it had not. I have a video recording of the event on my security camera.
I bought a new 2017 Toyota Camry xle in April 2017 and soon thereafter started noticing some unusual, unintended acceleration and jerking during slowing down/deceleration. The car jerks and tries to maintain speed against the driver's intention to slow down gradually and/or stop, specifically noticeable at 20 and 30 mph speeds. During slow down, seems like car switches gear abnormally to maintain speed when it's supposed to be slowing down gradually. It tries to maintain speed for an unusually long time instead of smoothly slowing down with no foot on accelerator pedal, causing too much use of brake over and over to slow it down and avoid collision with car in front of you, slow down or stop. I am contacting you after exhausting all my efforts to convince dealer and the Toyota corporate office to have them take this �unintended acceleration� safety concern seriously and do something about it. I am sure lots of 2017 Camry owners are suffering and frustrated with the same issue, but cannot get anywhere with dealer tech services or Toyota.
