What owners wrote
2000 toyota avalon driven by my wife quote "suddenly took off" resulting in a wreck. Car was totaled with no airbag deployment. Early morning with heavy rains, approx. 35 miles per hour speed, breaking, when car took off.
For your information, I had a 2000 toyota avalon which I purchased new and was in excellent condition. The car had a power surge, which caused the car to go through a brick wall at a car wash in clinton, ms. Insurance company totaled the car. Since my car was idling at the time and no foot was on the accelerator I believe it was a computer glitch which caused the car to accelerate. I had no control over the car what so ever. I am being penalized for this. Toyota should be held responsible.
