Pedal just stuck! - Toyota Yaris Forums

A little update: Dropped my car off to toyota dealer around 1:45 pm today. I explained my problems with the car, and also explained how when I have my cell phone in the holder under the radio and someone texts or calls me, the car acts funny. He asked me to leave my cell phone and car over night so they can test it.

He also tells me I am not the first one to complain about sticky pedals/weirdness with the computers ECU. Many cell phone complaints have come in saying when the cell phone is anywhere near the speedometer the car tends to act funny.

Tomorrow I will get my car back and see what they have to say.

As for now, I hope someone tries to see if theres a difference in their car when their cell phone is on and near the speedometer.

Some differences in driving from the cell phone interference: Pedal becomes harder to press, steering wheel acts different.
