| The driver side floor mat is not fixed to the underlying floor. it slides around. this condition was apparent from the day i bought the car. the toyota dealership said there was nothing they could do. before i recently heard this could be an actual danger by interfering with the gas or brake pedals, i just straightened it out when i saw it has moved out of place. now i removed the mat but this means the floor below is not protected from dirt, etc. it bothers me that toyota never thought this was an issue. now i find out that later models were recalled for this problem. they still will not do anything because it's a 2003 and not under a recall order. i wanted to file this complaint so it known that the 2003 camry (xle) has this problem too. *tr | |||

| My wife was pulling into our daughters daycare to drop her off as she does every morning and while pulling into the parking spot and when applying the brake the vehicle surged forward at a high throttle speed jumped the curb and went crashing into the building. even pumping the brakes didn't stop the car. the only way to get the vehicle to stop going forward was to jam the gear selector into reverse and then the vehicle went backwards at a high rate of speed (brakes still didn't work) and then had to jam the gear selector to park to stop the vehicle. update as of today. our vehicle is currently at a toyota dealership and service center and the service manager said there is no problem with the brakes, and we are scared of the through of driving this vehicle again. it seems to be a electronic issue and connected to the speed control. i have found a message board on the internet where 97 other similar incidents have been reported. and toyota does a recall on the floor mats? hmm i smell a cover-up and a possible class action lawsuit. *tr | |||
