    While driving along at slower speeds the engine seems to quit for about 5sec then it comes on again. This is a dangerous condition. This could happen anytime.

    Vehicle randomly and suddenly revs itself both from a stopped position and while driving. When driving downhill and i take my foot off the gas the vehicle will continue to rev itself around 3000 rpm then when i start to travel uphill it will down shift to about 1500 rpm. This seems backwards. Tapping brakes does not cause it to downshift as needed, does not seem right to apply brakes and vehicle continues to rev…

    I was driving into town (approx. 12 miles) and slowed to about 40 mph as i was approaching a stop light. I had to apply all my weight to stop the vehicle. The engine did not return to idle speed when i was stopped. I shifted to neutral and the rpm indicated 1500 revs. I kicked the gas pedal and the engine returned to normal idle speed, 700 revs. The floor mat was nowhere near the pedal. I can not find any recalls…

    February 22, 2010, my 2010 toyota 4runner accelerated fiercely, my head was slammed into the headrest. I was at an intersection at the crosswalk; if a person had been in the crosswalk i would have killed them. The car went back to normal as suddenly as it accelerated. Terrifying! My head still aches. Took car to dealer and reported incident. The manager took a flash light and looked at the gas pedal and floor mat…
