During the past six weeks my 2011 rav4 has accelerated after lifting my food off of the brake. I did not engage the accelerator at all when this happened. I have a major concern because this happened again today when i stopped at a crosswalk with people crossing. Scared the heck out of me. This is either the third or four time that something like this has happened, only today it was more severe.

This rav 4 has had two separate instances of sudden acceleration. One time while approaching a stop light, and the brake was applied, the engine started to rev, and the vehicle had "extended stopping distance". Luckily, there was no car in front of us, otherwise there would have been an accident. It occurred a second time while pulling into a parking spot at work. Again, luckily, there was a snow bank in front of…

I practically stood on the brake pedal and eventually the car stopped just short of crashing. It traveled a distance of 60 feet before stopping. We purchased the car new and it has 6000 miles on it. My husband immediately checked…

I was at a stop sign in a parking lot attempting to turn left to position my car behind a pick-up truck (towing a trailer) waiting to turn right. My car shot ahead and crashed into the trailer. Applying the brake did nothing. I finally was able to put the car in reverse and it shot backwards at the same high speed. I don't know what the tach read--it wasn't a priority at the time. Had the truck and trailer not been…

I have a serious concern over the design of the brake and gas pedal width on my 2011 toyota rav. My problem is that my dress shoes and recreation boots are getting caught on the brake pedal when i swivel from the gas to the brake pedal. On multiple occasions, i came close to serious accidents. I avoided the accidents by quickly sliding my right foot to the right and completely lifting my foot up and over to the…
