THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CARIBBEAN AUTO MART (4523 ESTATE CHARLOTTE AMALIE, ST THOMAS 00802, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS, 1(340)777-7600) AND DIAGNOSED.

IT IS POSSIBLE WE ARE BEING DISENFRANCHISE AND NEED TO BE PROTECTED UNDER THE ANTITRUST LAWS. THE OWNER OF THE DEALERSHIP CONTROLS MORE THAN 85% OF THE MARKET, WHICH MIGHT BE A VIOLATION OF ANTITRUST LAWS.*JB

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER ON THE CAMRY ARE GROSSLY INACCURATE. DURING A RECENT ROAD TRIP UPON A ODOMETER SPEEDOMETER CHECKPOINT USED BY INTERSTATE TRUCK DRIVERS OF WHICH I AM ONE THE VEHICLE REVEALED THAT IT CALIBRATES ONE MILE AT 4900 FEET. TOYOTA WAS NOTIFIED ABOUT THIS ON THREE SEPARATE SERVICE OCCASIONS AND THEY HAVE FAILED TO CORRECT THIS DEFICIENCY. AS IT TURNS OUT THE TOYOTA CAMRY IS THE MOST RENTED MID-SIZED CAR IN NORTH AMERICA WHICH MEANS THAT THERE IS CONSIDERABLE OVERCHARGING OF MILES. THIS DEFICIENCY ALSO CAUSES SIGNIFICANT OVERCHARGING OF INSURANCE RATES AND PREMATURE WEAR OF PRIVATELY OWNED VEHICLES. THE SPEEDOMETER HAS BEEN CROSS CHECKED AGAINST GPS AND TOMTOM NAVIGATION SYSTEMS AND REVEALED ITSELF TO BE AT LEAST 16 MILES PER HOUR OFF AT HIGHWAY SPEED ON FIVE SEPARATE OCCASIONS.. THE CARS OVER REPORTING OF SPEED, AND MILAGE INDICATES FALSE EPA MILAGE ESTIMATES. TOYOTA HAS NOT DISCOVERED ACCESS IN REPAIRING THIS ERROR.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
MY CAR, SINCE THE PURCHASE AT 51 MILES, IS CONSTANTLY NOT ACCELERATING WHEN I PUSH THE GAS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO ALLEN TOYOTA, 11 JULY 2020, WHERE THEY STATED THERE WAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH CALIBRATION. THE CALIBRATION WAS COMPLETED, BUT THE CAR IS STILL DOING THE SAME THING. ONCE THE CAR HAS BEEN IN PARK AND STATIONARY FOR A FEW HOURS, IT IS AWFUL WHEN TAKING OFF BECAUSE THE CAR JERKS AND ACTS AS IF IT WILL TURN OFF. THE CAR NOW IS JERKING WHEN DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH DAILY. THIS IS DANGEROUS SINCE I CANNOT DEPEND ON THE CAR TO SPEEDUP WHEN AND AS NEEDED AND I'M AFRAID IT MY STALL AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
ON AUGUST 7, 2020 I WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF A SUBWAY RESTAURANT. I WENT IN AND PICKED UP MY ORDER TO GO. WHEN LEAVING I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE TO BACK OUT OF MY PARKING SPOT. THERE WAS A LARGE POLE ABOUT 15 FEET BEHIND ME THAT I SLIGHTLY BACKED INTO. PUTTING MY CAR FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE(AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION) MY CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED INTO THE SUBWAY RESTAURANT , JUMPING A CURB AND SIDEWALK CRASHING INTO THE BUILDING. I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE ACCELERATION, BRAKES DID NOT ALLOW ME TO BRAKE. THANKFULLY NO ONE IN THE BUILDING OR MYSELF WAS INJURED. THE POLICE OFFICER THAT MADE OUT THE ACCIDENT REPORT TOLD ME HE COULD NOT GIVE ME LEGAL ADVICE BUT THAT THIS SUDDEN ACCELERATION HAS HAPPENED BEFORE AND THAT I MAY WANT TO GOGGLE IT. I DID GOGGLE THIS PROBLEM AND FOUND MANY OTHER INSTANCES WHERE THIS HAS OCCURRED. I CALLED A TOYOTA DEALER AND GAVE HER MY VIN NUMBER AND SHE SAID THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THIS AND SHE HAD NOT HEARD OF ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE. I CONSIDER THIS A MAJOR PROBLEM AND THAT SOMEONE COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. THE CAR IS IN THE REPAIR SHOP BUT I DO NOT WANT IT BACK UNTIL THIS PROBLEM IS FIXED. NEXT TIME THIS SUDDEN ACCELERATION HAPPENS THE OUTCOME COULD BE DRASTICALLY DIFFERENT. PLEASE NOTIFY ME WITH ANY INFORMATION YOU HAVE. THANK YOU. PICTURES AVAILABLE IF NEEDED.
