    We were out of town when 3 lights on the dash appeared. Traction , engine and vsb. No dealership in town where we were. My husband disconnected the battery and it reset. Didn't see the lights for three weeks, just came back on after sitting up all night. Dealership said $600, thank goodness i got extended warranty. When you accelerated to 30mph it would not shift out right. And vehicle would not go over 60mph. *tr

    I have a toyota tundra 2005 that has had the throttle drivers updated. I have had at least 6 incidences of uncontrolled acceleration. These incidences occur at slow speed in muddy situations.

The only way to stop the throttle or unwanted…
