I called my husband with the blue tooth. I knew (she cries) he could not help me but I wanted to hear his voice. After 6 miles God intervened. As the car came very slowly to a stop I pulled it to the left median with the car stopped and both feet on the brake the motor still reved up and down at 35 mph and would not shut off. Finally at 33 mph I was able to turn the engine off.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;After my husband arrived there was nothing unusual with the floormats, the dash lights and radio were still on. the wrecker driver asked my hsubnd to put my car in neutral so he could use the winch. My husband was able to shift into neutral, but when he did that, the car tried to start itself. The wrecker driver attested to this. After ten days Toyota did not contact us. We received an analysis stating &#8220;if properly maintained the brakes will always override the accelerator.&#8221; Well that\u2019s a lie!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been warning for years that Toyota have been selling shitbox death traps in Central America &#8211; now it&#8217;s come here.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, Tom Clancy predicted the war between the US and Japan would start over their shitbox cars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rhonda Smith&#8217;s testimony to Congress today; &#8220;I thought I&#8217;d have to put it into the guard &hellip; <a title=\"Stupid round eyes!
