description: IN AUGUST 2009 THE COMPUTER WAS REPLACED ON MY 2007 TOYOTA COROLLA BECAUSE IT DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. SINCE THAT TIME, MY CAR WILL SUDDENLY REV UP AND ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER A FEW WEEKS AGO AND AFTER HAVING IT FOR A WEEK, RETURNED IT TO ME AND STATED NOTHING WAS WRONG. ON NOVEMBER 2ND, MY CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY AND I HAD TO KNOCK IT OUT OF GEAR AND STAND UP ON THE BRAKE TO GET IT TO STOP. I CALLED THE DEALER AND HE SAID TO CALL TOYOTA THAT HE WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING WITH THE CAR. I HAVE A CAR IN MY GARAGE THAT I CANNOT DRIVE FOR SAFETY REASONS, NO HELP FROM TOYOTA, AND I WILL NEVER DRIVE IT AGAIN AS I HAVE HAD RE-OCCURRING NIGHTMARES BECAUSE OF THIS INCIDENT AS MY TWINS WERE PLAYING IN THE DRIVEWAY AND I HAD JUST PASSED MY SON ON HIS TRICYCLE AND STOPPED AND PUT MY DAUGHTER ON MY LAP TO PULL INTO THE GARAGE WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I HAVE ASKED FOR A FULL REFUND ON THE CAR AND TONY STUBBLEFIELD WITH RELIABLE TOYOTA IN SPRINGFIELD MO SAID THAT THE BEST HE COULD DO WAS ALLOW ME TO TRADE IT IN THERE. THIS DID HAPPEN TO ME, I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE FILED A LAW SUIT, AND I WOULD LIKE THIS CAR TAKEN AWAY AND THE SITUATION RECTIFIED OR I WILL BE LEFT WITH NO OTHER ALTERNATIVE BUT TO SEEK THE SERVICES OF AN ATTORNEY. THIS STRESS IS CAUSING ME HEALTH ISSUES. *TR
