2008 Toyota Tacoma pickup truck- I was wearing a pair of steel tip workboots when I was pulling into a parking space at a convenience store. I hit the brake but the brake pedal when actuated is closer to the floor than the top part of the gas pedal. With steel tip work boots being worn which are wider than street shoes I actuated the brake and gas pedal at the same time. The truck shot forward in the parking spot and hit a tubular pylon filled with concrete. This is the only thing that kept the vehicle from crashing into a person or building. Damage to vehicle has been estimated @ $ 1,170. 00.

Soft brakes on my 2007 Toyota Tacoma. It seems that the truck not responding to braking as you try to stop. I had a couple of close calls but luckily no accidents. I searched on the internet to see if others are concerned about the brakes on these trucks and it turns out to be a major issue. Car and driver magazine reported the same problem in there February 2007 issue. I believe that these brakes could cause injury and it should be investigated.

This is not a failure, but something I see as a safety issue. . When I am stopping at a stop light/ stop sign and am in driv with the air conditioner (a/c) on the truck will surge forward and I have to push the brakes down harder. This only happens when the a/c is on, and seems to come from the increase in engine rpms when the compressor kicks on. This is very unsafe and could cause me to rear end someone.

I am still driving a vehicle with the integrity of the braking system is compromised. And have not received a reasonable resolution to this problem from Toyota motor company. Is it a common practice for an auto maker to let a consumer knowingly drive an unsafe vehicle. Unfortunately I am still paying on a brand new vehicle that I do not feel safe driving. The regional field service technician, joe lacefield from Toyota motor company has been unavailable by phone for the last week 1-973-464-0938. I would like my money returned for this vehicle in full. I feel that I have been more than patient in trying to resolve this matter with Toyota motor company. V. I. N. # 5tewm72n54z372584.

S10 appropriate handling re Toyota throttle control problem fm owner of a 2006 Toyota Tacoma truck. The consumer stated twice within the past year, he experienced sudden acceleration. In both instances, his foot was on the brake and he was moving less that 5 mph. Both times, the vehicle surged forward as the abs activated, and the front of the vehicle impacted the garage wall. The consumer believed the problem involved the electronic control system that activated and operated the abs and throttle. He noticed that the abs tends to activate too often and too early, even in dry conditions.
