The accelerator pedal stuck on my 2000 Toyota Tundra truck while I was trying to parallel park on a downtown side street, causing me to hit the vehicles in front and in back. No one was hurt, but vehicular damage was considerable, and my insurance increased. A police report was filed. Until now, I couldn't figure out what happened. It hasn't recurred, and this model wasn't mentioned in the recall.
I had the accelerator stick while parallel parking my 2000 Toyota truck about 4 years ago. I tried to brake, then put the vehicle in reverse, ended up damaging both the vehicle in front and behind my vehicle. At the time, I didn't understand what had occurred. Now I see others have experienced the same problem.
