| To whom this may concern, my 2004 toyota solara experienced unintended (runaway) acceleration in the parking lot of a local restaurant this past sunday. placing my foot on the break did not stop this vehicle. the vehicle did stop when it ran into a large rock. no one was injured this time. the floor mat was not the cause of this problem. does toyota have any solution/recall for this problem? if not, does toyota have any plans on correcting this problem in the near future? a quick response to my questions would be greatly appreciated. *tr best regards, fred | |||
