My toyota corolla 2010 model accelerated for no apparent reason when i was backing up my car. I shifted the gear to reverse and release the brake, and even before i pressed the accelerator my car backed up as if i have pressed the accelerator pedal real hard. I had to brake real hard to get the car under control. Since i was in a big empty parking lot no damage was done. *tr

1. Regular driving under normal condition, sometimes for several minutes, sometimes for a few seconds. 2. Speed control does not seem to be consistent. Rpm meter would go above normal 2000 revs per minute even when the car is in neutral. 3. Was repaired by dealer as part of the gas pedal recall. The problem continues. 4. I do not think it has to do with the gas pedal, it appears to be a problem with the throttle…
