Unintended Acceleration Attorneys Investigate Toyota Recall for Individuals and Families Injured Due to Sudden Unintended Acceleration

If you or someone you love drives one of the recalled Toyota or Lexus vehicles, no doubt you have serious questions and concerns. As Toyota recall lawyers, we are currently investigating serious injuries that occurred as a result of unintended acceleration in Toyota or Lexus vehicles. Along with our co-counsel at McCuneWright LLP and Hanly Conroy Bierstein Sheridan Fisher & Hayes LLP, we've been involved in this litigation since the beginning. As unintended acceleration attorney inquiries rise, our firm is prepared to help individuals and families that may have been unnecessarily put in harms way.

Independent investigations and reports have linked the Toyota sudden unintended acceleration problem to over 800 accidents, involving over 300 injuries and 19 deaths.  Since 1999 there have been over 1700 incidents of sudden unintended acceleration in Toyota and Lexus vehicles reported to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”).  These reported events have occurred in substantial numbers of more than 25 different model and model year Toyota vehicles employing an electronic throttle control system.

These complaints have been linked to hundreds of car accidents and multiple fatalities.  But not until the high-profile accident killing off-duty California Highway Patrol officer Mark Saylor and three members of his family in August 2009 did Toyota finally acknowledge that there might actually be a problem.

Toyota recall lawyer recently told CNN: "What I hear over and over and over again, I'm driving down the road, and my car just takes off on me. I apply the brakes. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. That's the pattern that we have seen."

Toyota has, at last, acknowledged serious problems with certain of their vehicles.  After initially blaming the issue on faulty floor mats, Toyota now has said that the accelerator pedal could wear down and become difficult to depress, slow to spring back or stuck partly depressed. This can cause sudden unintended acceleration. Sudden unintended acceleration – in which your car races ahead even though you are not pressing the accelerator pedal – is a rare but potentially fatal event.
