  • This isn't a "defect". The exact same thing happened to me in my Saturn L300 years before this recall with an aftermarket winter floor mat. Took about 5 seconds to solve the problem: transmission to neutral, brake hard, pull aside. The engine revs like mad but you can just shut it off once you've stopped. Simple stuff, obviously Toyota drivers are too retarded to figure it out.

  • And that's why i drive a c class.

  • @masterwolf1212 Come to think of it and it's quite true lol.

  • @ClubbySuperCharged wouldnt lock up unless you pumped it enough and had some strong legs. Every pump of the pedal pumpes more and more brake fluid into the caliper. Therefore the more brake fluid the more pressure on the pad and the more stopping power. And I'd want my brakes to lock up and me loose control rather than slamming head on into a wall at 120mph or more.

  • @masterwolf1212 Wouldn't it lock up the whole braking system? I might as well slam on it and go neutral.

  • @ClubbySuperCharged why is that?

  • @masterwolf1212 Pumping the brakes isn't a good idea...

  • @Olengher thats the parking break. You push it with your foot. Which makes me question why this guy didnt- Put the car into neutral, put on the parking brake, shut the engine off and pump the breaks, put the car so the max gear it goes into is 1 so it downshifts, or bent down to remove the mat- might as well try, if ya dont your gonna die, if you do die whilst doing it atleast you did something, or if you succeed great for you, get rid of that japanese import peice of shit.

  • Americans drive mostly automatic right?That third pedal is not the clutch, wtf is that?This was really strange to die cos acceleration is stuck.I'm noob driver, i hated the clutch when i learned to drive for killin my engine, but it seems there are good parts too to drivin a manual
