I HAD A MECHANIC REPLACING ROTORS ON BRAKES AND WHEN I WENT TO PICK IT UP TODAY, HE TOLD ME THE ENTIRE UNDERSIDE OF MY VEHICLE WAS RUSTING AWAY. HE ADVISED ME TO AVOID HITTING ANY HOLES OR BUMPS IN THE ROAD SINCE THE FRAME SUPPORTING THE GAS TANK IS VERY DAMAGED FROM RUST. HE STATED THAT HE WOULD NOT TRUST DRIVING IT VERY FAR DISTANCES SINCE THINGS WERE GOING TO START FALLING OFF UNDERNEATH. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:ACCELERATOR PEDAL
2006 TOYOTA 4 RUNNER. CONSUMER STATES ACCELERATOR ISSUES SIMILAR TO RECALL. CONSUMER STATES THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED HE ALONG WITH HIS WIFE OWN A 2006 TOYOTA 4RUNNER BUT THEIR VEHICLES WERE NOT A PART OF THE RECALL. THE CONSUMER AND HIS WIFE EXPERIENCED ACCELERATION ISSUES. THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN BACKING UP OR GOING FORWARD AND PREPARING TO STOP, HE LET HIS FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND THEN APPLIED THE BRAKES AT A VERY LOW SPEED, BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT SLOW DOWN. THE CONSUMER HAD TO USE BOTH FEET IN ORDER TO GET THE VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN. AT TIMES, THE VEHICLE LURCHED FORWARD AS THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE PROBLEM WAS ELECTRONIC AND NOT MECHANICAL. *JB
