| 2001 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | ON 4/1/08, IN THE MORNING, ON WET ROADS, I WAS DRIVING MY '01 TOYOTA SOLARA AND NEEDED TO STOP SHORT IN TRAFFIC. I HAD BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKES, THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES NEVER KICKED IN, NOR DID THE CAR SLOW DOWN. I HAD REAR ENDED A TOYOTA SEQUOIA. I HAD MENTIONED TO THE OTHER DRIVER THAT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I HAD ALSO TOLD THE POLICE OFFICER THE SAME. MY TOYOTA SOLARA WAS TOTALED. CONVINCED THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES, I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A MECHANIC TO HAVE THE BRAKES CHECKED OUT, AND NOTHING WAS WRONG. ONLY AFTER HEARING THE RECENT WOES OF OTHER TOYOTAS' WITH THE STICKING ACCELERATOR, DID IT FINALLY CLICK AND MAKE SENSE. THIS IS WHY THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES DID NOT ENGAGE AND WHY THE CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN. THE REASON I AM REPORTING THIS NOW IS BECAUSE I BELIEVE TOYOTA VEHICLES HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR LONGER THAN THE RECALLS LISTS SUGGEST, AND I BELIEVE MORE INVESTIGATIONS SHOULD BE DONE ON THE HIGHER MILEAGE VEHICLES. *TR |
