Attorneys used the national surge in reports of sudden acceleration accidents after his crash to reopen his case and get him exonerated after 2 1/2 years in jail, even though his year of Camry was never recalled for any defects. Lee joined a lawsuit against Toyota, the jury found Toyota 60% at fault, and Lee 40%, and ordered Toyota to pay $10.9 million in damages even though no problems were found with the brakes, the gas pedal was floored after the crash, and the defense never proved their contention that the throttle got stuck farther each time Lee tapped the gas pedal.
