I WAS DRIVING IN EAST GRANBY NEAR A FEDEX DELIVERY TRUCK. THIS TRUCK KEPT SWERVING LANES IN ORDER TO GET AROUND OTHER CARS, BUT HE DID SO BY CUTTING ME OFF MULTIPLE TIMES. HE WOULD GO TO CHANGE LANES THEN SWERVE BACK IN THE ORIGINAL LANE, CAUSING ME AND OTHER CARS TO NEED TO SLAM BRAKES TO STAY SAFE. THIS WAS ALSO IN A SCHOOL ZONE IN EAST GRANBY NEAR THE CENTER ABOUT 3 MILES FROM THE BRADLEY AIRPORT IN CT. THE DRIVER KEPT LAUGHING AND SMILING AT MYSELF AND OTHER CARS AND ONCE I WAS ABLE TO GET AROUND HIM TO PASS AND MOVE ON HE FLIPPED ME OFF.

ON MARCH 26,2020 I WENT TO DRIVE MY CAR. THE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED, STICKY, AND MELTED THROUGHOUT. THE NEXT DAY I CALLED PRIORITY TOYOTA AND WAS TOLD (JOHN SERVICE MANAGER) THAT THEY WOULD NOT FIX IT DUE TO THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT NOTIFICATION-ZE6 WHICH ENDED MAY 31, 2017. ALSO, I HAD OWNED THE CAR FOR MORE THAN 10 YEARS. HE WOULD REPLACE IT AT MY COST OF APPROX. $2200 BUT HE WOULD PROVIDE AN EXACT AMOUNT WHEN I DECIDED TO FIX IT. THEN I EXPLORED THE INTERNET TO SEE THE SCOPE OF THE PROBLEM. IT CAN LEAD TO VISIBILITY PROBLEMS (GLARE) AND PROBLEMS WITH THE DASHBOARD AIRBAGS. YESTERDAY, APRIL 7, 2020 I CALLED THE TOYOTA CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER 1-888-2709371 AND SPOKE TO RANDALL WHO REPEATED WHAT JOHN HAD SAID, BUT ADDED THAT MY CAR WAS OLD AND NOT WORTH MUCH AND I HAD GOTTEN MY MONIES WORTH OUT OF IT. I ASKED WHO I COULD CALL NEXT AND HE SAID HE WAS THE END OF THE LINE. I WAS ASSIGNED A CASE #[XXX] BUT CAN'T SEE TO READ IT FOR MYSELF. THE CAR HAS REMAINED IN MY GARAGE SINCE I SAW THE PROBLEM ON MARCH 26. IT IS GETTING WORSE. IT WAS LAST DRIVEN ON MARCH 5 WITH NO PROBLEMS. I HAVE A TOYOTA RAV 2017 FROM PRIORITY TOYOTA, HAMPTON, VA 757 838-5000.

WHILE ON THE STREET AS I WAS BACKING MY CAR INTO A PARKING SPACE ADJACENT TO THE STREET CURB THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED IN REVERSE AT HIGH SPEED, CRASHING OVER THE CURB AND SIDEWALK, REAR END FIRST. MY STEPPING ON THE BRAKES IN AN ATTEMPT TO STOP THE CAR WAS UNSUCCESSFUL; THE CAR DID NOT COME TO A STOP UNTIL IT CRASHED INTO AN IRON FENCE WHICH BORDERED THE YARD CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE FENCE AND THE CAR. A SIMILAR INCIDENT OCCURRED QUITE A FEW YEARS AGO WHEN THE SAME CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED IN REVERSE OUT OF CONTROL AND I WAS UNABLE TO BRING IT TO A HALT UNTIL IT HIT A PARKED CAR. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT CAUSED EITHER OF THESE INCIDENTS TO OCCUR.

ON FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4TH (2019) I WAS WAITING IN LINE AT A RED LIGHT (ON STATE STREET AT THE INTERSECTION WITH HAYWOOD ROAD IN ASHEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA). SUDDENLY MY TOYOTA 2006 LURCHED FORWARD AND BANGED INTO THE CAR AHEAD OF ME. I STOMPED ON THE BRAKE. THE CAR STOPPED, THEN JUMPED FORWARD AGAIN AND BANGED THE CAR AHEAD OF ME AGAIN. MY HUSBAND, SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, THREW THE GEAR SHIFT INTO 'PARK' AND OUR CAR STOPPED. AS I WAS JUST WAITING IN LINE AT THE LIGHT WHEN THE CAR SPONTANEOUSLY SURGED FORWARD, WE FEEL THIS WAS A CASE OF 'TOYOTA SUDDEN UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION.' OUR INSURER HAS APPRAISED THE DAMAGE TO CAR AT JUST BELOW $3000. WE NO LONGER CONSIDER THIS CAR SAFE TO DRIVE. OUR INSURER DID NOT REQUIRE A POLICE REPORT. THERE WERE NO PERSONAL INJURIES, SO POLICE WERE NOT CALLED.

WE HAVE CHANGED THE BREAK MASTER CYLINDER ASSEMBLY RECENTLY AND EVEN AFTER THE REPAIR, VEHICLE DOESN'T STOP WITHIN SAFE STOPPING DISTANCE,THE ROOT CAUSE SEEMS TO BE STEMMING FROM INEFFECTIVE BOOSTER.

ON SUNDAY, APRIL 7TH, I WAS TRAVELING WESTBOUND ON THE SOUTHERN STATE PARKWAY AT EXACTLY FIFTY-FIVE MPH AND EXITED AT EXIT 17N. THE EXIT RAMP THERE IS SLOPED UPHILL AND PARALLELS TAYLOR ROAD. THERE IS A STOP SIGN AT THE END OF THAT RAMP AT HEMPSTEAD AVENUE.

I SLAMMED MY FOOT ONTO THE BRAKE PEDAL WHICH KEPT THE CAR FROM MOVING FURTHER FORWARD AND THEN BEFORE I COULD DO ANYTHING ELSE, THE PHENOMENON ENDED AND THE ENGINE RETURNED TO ITS NORMAL IDLING SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 700 RPM ON THE DASHBOARD TACHOMETER. I DROVE HOME AND PARKED THE CAR IN MY DRIVEWAY. THE FOLLOWING MORNING, MONDAY APRIL 8TH, I MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THAT DAY TO BRING THE CAR TO A TOYOTA DEALER. AS I WAS PREPARING FOR THAT, I STARTED THE CAR AND EVERYTHING SEEMED NORMAL. I PUT IT INTO REVERSE IN ORDER TO BACK OUT WHEN THE ENGINE AGAIN SUDDENLY SPED UP TO EXTREME ACCELERATION. AGAIN, I SLAMMED MY FOOT ONTO THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THIS TIME I PUT THE GEAR SHIFT INTO PARK WHICH KEPT THE CAR FROM MOVING FURTHER. THE TACHOMETER NEEDLE WAS ROTATED CLOCKWISE AND WELL UP INTO THE "RED" ZONE WHICH BEGINS AT 6000 RPM. IN A MOMENT OR SO, THE PHENOMENON AGAIN ENDED AND THE ENGINE AGAIN RETURNED TO ITS NORMAL IDLING SPEED.

YESTERDAY WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON CITY STREETS WITH MY WIFE ON THE PASSENGER SEAT THE PASSENGER "AIR BAG OFF" LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. THE CAR HAS 78,131 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THE TOYOTA OWNER'S MANUAL STATES THAT THE "AIR BAG OFF" INDICATOR MEANS THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SYSTEM IS DISABLED. I CHECKED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BUT I DID NOT SEE THAT TOYOTA HAS TAKEN ANY ACTION. OBVIOUSLY, THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE GET INJURED OR KILLED. IF THERE IS A RECALL NOW OR IN THE FUTURE, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
