Whom it may concern: my wife and I bought our 2009 Camry for safety. So we could feel safe taking our children to their sporting events, school, etc. We have been experiencing the throttle sticking issue. The entire time we have had the car. First at 10,000 miles, 18,000 miles, 33,123 miles, 36,000 miles, and 38,500. My wife took the car in the third time at 33,123 miles to thompson Toyota in edgewood MD insisting it wasn't the floor mats. They insisted it was the floor mats even though my wife said other wise. The ran a diagnostic on the problem and couldn't find anything. They blamed it on a dirty air filter and carbon build up on the throttle body. My wife requested to be taken back and be shown this, they refused to show her the dirty throttle body. Tompson Toyota wanted to charge my wife $200 to perform this service. She called me and I told her to bring the car home. The fifth time it happened at 38,500 miles on the car. My wife and I were driving to the grocery story when the car accelerated to 80mph. On the last two occasions this happened the floor mats were out.

I drive a 2005 Toyota Camry. . . In about approx. October 2009 I experienced while on the I-20 freeway car trouble. My gas pedal went all the way to the floor and the car reved up and died. It would not start and when it did the motor went racing. I had to have it towed to the Toyota dealership. I have in writing from the yokem Toyota dealership that it was my throttle sticking. I paid them approx. $900. 00 to have it fixed. I wrote to the Toyota corp. About getting reimbursed in January and still have not heard from them. I didnt see my year model on the recall list but I did send them a copy of my receipt with the dealership stating that it was the throttle. How can I get reimbursed. My mother bought 4 Toyota for the family and so far mine had the defect.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated the throttle sticks and then began functioning properly. The failure is electrical within the computer in regards to the accelerator pedal. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer in November 2007. They replaced reprogrammed the computer shift points. Yet, the vehicle continued to malfunction. The contact wrote the Toyota manufacturer three times and has not received any response. The failure mileage was 200. The current mileage was 50,000. Updated 03/04/10 updated 05/17/10.
The throttle sticks never had it happen at highway speeds yet. Like when you pull up to a light to stop it sticks but if you hold on to the brake it goes down to nomal. Since I've owned this car it has happened 5 times. The last time as I was pulling into the drive. Hard to lay your hands on to what to do.
