Pulled left into parking area, car accelerated very fast, went over 4-6" berm. I hit the brake, car stopped. Backed down off berm, didn't do damage. Took car to toyota, report done and an analysis. Determined "unintended acceleration...pedal misapplication" . Not convinced that's what happened especially after reading other similar complaints. Feel there is a defect in car, further investigation is needed. *tr

Then when depressing the gas pedal several times the engine would catch and jump forward. Almost hitting the vehicle in front of us. This car accelerates at times when braking and hesitates when pressing on the gas. I also noticed when i was stopped at a light,…

I was extremely shaken up since i thought i was going…
