Sudden unintended acceleration (SUA) is a vehicle defect that causes a car to speed up all of the sudden without the driver having the ability to slow or stop the car via the brakes. Although vehicles of various makes and models have been reported to cause severe, fatal SUA accidents, Toyota is the latest car manufacturer to face such claims. In October 2009, Toyota recalled approximately 6 million vehicles in the U.S. (8 million worldwide) due to possible defects that significantly increase the risk of causing sudden unintended acceleration.
Currently, Toyota admits that unsecured floor mats, as well as sticky accelerator pedals, are to blame for sudden unintended acceleration in a number of its vehicles. However, many experts are suggesting that electronic problems may also be to blame. To date, more than 100 Americans have died as a result of SUA accidents, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
