I WAS SLOWLY TURNING LEFT INTO A PARKING SPACE AT ABOUT 3:30 P.M., WHEN MY 2005 TOYOTA CAMRY SUDDENLY, AND QUITE RAPIDLY, ACCELERATED WITHOUT ANY INPUT FROM ME. IT JUMPED A CURB, CROSSED A SIDEWALK, AND A TREE STOPPED THE CAR. IT FELT LIKE I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE CAR. ALSO, THE STEERING WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. SOMEHOW, I MANAGED TO STEER THE CAR AWAY FROM THE APARTMENT BUILDING AND MY NEIGHBOR GLASS SLIDER. THE CAR TRAVELED ABOUT 30 PLUS FEET IN ITS ACCELERATION, WHEN A TREE STOPPED IT. IT LEFT ABOUT 20 FEET OF SKID MARKS. I WAS NOT HURT IN THE CRASH. THE CAR SUSTAINED DAMAGE, MAINLY TO THE FRONT BUMPER, COOLANT SYSTEM, AND HOOD, FOR APPROXIMATELY $5,400. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA CORPORATION, TORRANCE, CALIFORNIA, AND THEY INVESTIGATED THE CAR. THEY REPORTED THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, AND THERE WERE NO DESIGN FAULTS. THE TOYOTA DEALER WHERE I HAD BOUGHT THE CAMRY ADDITIONALLY TESTED THE CAR COMPUTERS, AND ALSO CALLED IN A TOYOTA FACTORY REPRESENTATIVE TO TEST THE CAR. THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. I SOLD THE CAMRY BACK TO THIS DEALER. THE CAR HAD ABOUT 5,400 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME OF THE CRASH. THE CAR HAD BEEN RUNNING WELL UNTIL THIS SUDDEN, UNEXPLAINED ACCELERATION THAT RESULTED IN A CRASH. *JB
