What owners wrote

I was slowly pulling into a parking lane, started to turn left towards a parking spot when my 2004 toyota camry XLE accelerated suddenly and pressing on the brake did little to stop the car. This happened in a shopping center parking lot. As a result, two other cars were damaged and the my camry was totaled. The car had approximately 148000 miles on it. The car had been routinely maintained.

I own a 2004 toyota camry. It has a defective throttle body which has left my wife stranded and cost $1000 to fix from the dealer. This is a common problem and a few of my friends have had to pay twice to get this fixed. The other issue is there a defective part in the steering linkage that pops when you turn. This eventually leads to slop in the steering and it cause my to go in the ditch. This accident has given me a chronic back condition and prevented me from commissioning in the military.
