Toyota camry 2010, was driven to dentist office parking lot. While parking the brake was pressed to bring it to a standstill. However, it suddenly accelerated and leaped forward and smashed against an immovable wall in front. All this while the wheel kept on spinning uncontrollably. Front of car is badly mauled depicting the uncalled for momentum. Glad that there was a wall as this aborted the fearsome craze. Driver…

On my morning commute i had to initiate a fast acceleration by depressing the accelerator pedal fully to gain speed and upon taking my foot off the pedal i noticed it remained depressed fully and continued to accelerate. This situation had happened a year prior in a similar case where i had put "the pedal to the metal" and the accelerator pedal stuck to the floor. Slamming on the brakes allowed the accelerator to…

Ever since i have owned this car i've noticed the accelerator and brakes are extremely touch and impossible to accelerate smoothly from a stop. The brakes are also extremely touchy so it's hard to come to a smooth stop without jerking. I have never had a problem like this and after reading all the complaints about about the accelerator and brakes i'm very worried that my car will eventually cause an accident. I…

I applied the brakes slowly as i was driving on the highway moving about 25 mph and instead of slowing down, the car accelerated--it jolted forward! I stepped on the brakes harder. This happened twice on one drive--i almost hit an 18 wheeler. Is there something i should do? I'm not sure if it is safe to drive.

The engine revved over and over and it took quite a bit of effort to actually stop the car. The…
