- The problem
- Braun is recalling certain model year 2011-2013 Rampvan vehicles manufactured from May 8, 2012, through January 3, 2013. Braun Rampvans are Toyota Sienna minivans that have been modified for special use. The Braun-specific toe pan panel comes in close proximity to the accelerator pedal lever. There could be an interference of the toe panel pan and the accelerator pedal lever.
- The risk
- If there is interference, the pedal may not return to the idle position which may produce unintended acceleration. This could increase the risk of a vehicle crash.
- The fix
- Braun will notify owners, and Braun dealers will modify the toe panel plastic as needed, free of charge. The recall began on February 7, 2013. This recall is being conducted by Braun and not by Toyota. Owners may contact Braun customer service center at 1-800-488-0359.

I have a 2011 dodge ram 4.7 V8 my complaint is that my truck is stuck in 4 gear. I was going 35 mph when out of now where it slows down and I almost get rear ended but lucky I was able to get out of the way when I pulled to the side I tried turning it off for a little bit and starting it again hoping it would go back to normal. But it did not I had to drive home at like 15 mph!!! Sometimes I wish I never got the truck it's giving me more problems then anything. Tie rods always go out
