| Traction Control System problems |
I have a Toyota Tundra 2005 that has had the throttle drivers updated. I have had at least 6 incidences of uncontrolled acceleration. These incidences occur at slow speed in muddy situations. Depressing the brakes to the floor does not stop the vehicle and I have had several near misses. This occurs in 2 wheel drive and I believe it has to do with the vsc and software. The only way to stop the throttle or unwanted momentum is to throw the vehicle into neutral. Even this does not immediately help. I recommend the ignition key as the quickest way to stop this. Additionally, our company has a newer Tundra that is getting fixed under the recall. This truck has experienced similar situations with other employees driving. Slow speeds in 2 wheel drive, in muddy situations the truck pushes you uncontrollably. I will investigate more once the truck is returned with the recall repairs. This all is related to the vsc system and the software. Please have an investigator call me. I believe that I can easily reproduce this situation in the vehicle. These vehicles are unsafe and Toyota needs to address these issues. I don't believe the current recall is addressing the issue!.
