My daughter was driving it on a side street in huntington, wv when she hit a pot hole or a manhole traveling at about 15 to 20 mph. The steering locked up and she hit a parked car.

    The description i am sending in may or may not be connected to the toyota recalls for brakes or gas pedal sticking. My experience is that everytime i step on the brake pedal i feel something move under my feet. Sometimes it feels like something is rolling under the carpet. My floor mats are snapped into place so i know that they are not moving. I plan on taking my car to a toyota dealer on thursday feb. 18, 2010.…

I noticed the first issue at only 6000 miles, right after my second service at the toyota dealer. They performed the brake manifold recall related to nhtsa campaign id number: 09v338000 during that service. The front brakes began to…
