Back during the recall i had my car serviced at the toyota station (2010) for the accelerator issue they were having. I am still having this problem.

Basically when the engine revs up i am not able to hit the gas or break. It's like the car has a mind of it's own and within about…

The vehicle continued to accelerate as it rested on the light pole. With my foot still…
