Dmv visit and records as of 09/27/2018-thur.please read below. Currently in 2018, and a few years in the past dmv pull out records for different car under my ownership> my car is 2001 toyota camry with automatic transmission,airbags,cruise control, power steering wheel, updated leather seat, mobile seats and much more. It is silver/platinum-metallic color and etc. Dmv employee per today's visit 9/27/2018 refusing to give me a paperwork or to cooperate with the state rules to the true id of the ownership(tangible ownership-I paid cash for my car in 2001). She (woman-worker)told me at dmv office redwood city,ca 94063 appointment # b0039, approx window 9 service time2:40pm; that dmv will not change nor update nor to correct records - but the wrongful entry into dmv records makes property owner to suffer with the id cases through law enforcement agencies and other re departments of USA. It affects my personal holdings value and my own financial stability and personal safety - recalls for 2000 are different to recalls of 2001-due to major updates and improvements to the subject car with the approval of judicial court system in 2001 and later. Currently my vehicle is stationed, I am searching for the true answers of the title on my car. How to prove police department and other agencies - police/lot securities that my car has been taking care of and free of any payments. I am afraid for my life due to scrutany of employees of dmv -san mateo county, city of redwood city. By the way my car records are in santa clara county and even some attachments in santa cruz county-state of california.

Dt: the contact states she received a carfax report that stated the following could happen. "the front frame assembly has not been adequately welded. Fuel throttle linkage and control; the accelerator cable housing could be deformed at the cruise control at the actuator to the throttle body. The inner accelerator inner cable could veer away and eventually break this could allow the throttle to return to the idle or remain in its most recent position regardless of accelerator pedal operation increasing the risk of a crash." none of these symptoms apply to her vehicle at this time.

While traveling between 55 and 65 MPH a vibration occurs in vehicle under normal operation. Dealership could not duplicate problem, and could not assist consumer. During the week of june 11th, accelerator stuck while vehicle was in operation. Dealership again stated they could not find anything wrong with vehicle. *ak consumer noticed cruise control was not working properly shortly after purchase, it would cut in and out and jerk vehicle, dealer adjusted terminal of jumper switch wire to ensure good contact and adjusted cable of the cruise control a couple months later, now consumer experiences problems with the accelerator sticking without the cruise control turned on, cruise is still experiencing problems while on, rpms are running high while at stops, and accelerator is sticking. While applying brakes when they are heated up, they get hard and cause vehicle to vibrate.
