2013 Toyota Avalon brakes complaints

Filed Feb 8, 2014 · Acceleration, Brakes · 850 miles · FL

I stopped at traffic light and had my foot on the brake but felt the car accelerate and start to go forward. I put the car in neutral with my foot still on the brake. When I tried to return to drive the car jumped a foot.I still had my foot pressed down on the brake. I went back to neutral. By that time the light changed and I went to drive and the car was back to normal. The car is 7 months old and this is the third time this has happened.I went to the dealer and after 4 hours I was told they could find nothing wrong with the car.one of the mechanics said :it's funnytof all the complaints we get of this nature wecannot find anything wrong,even our engineers can't figure it out. This disconcerting. While not admitting it they seem aware of the problem my wife is afraid to drive the car for good reason. Can I pursue the lemon law?

While driving from knoxville tn to atlanta ga, on a downgrade just outside of chattanooga on interstate 75 I went to use the brake pedal. It depressed all the way to the floor and did not come back. I had no brakes whatsoever and only by the grace of god was I able to safely make it over to the emergency lane, which was clear, and wait until I got to the bottom of the grade for the vehicle to coast to a stop on it's own. I had to use the grass and gravel just off the emergency lane to help bring the vehicle to a stop. I had vehicle towed back to toyota of knoxville, where purchased, and was told there is no problem with the vehicle. Have driven another 500 miles without incident and no plausible explanation for what happened has been offered by toyota.
