| Just as i put my new toyota 4-runner in reverse in a crowded parking lot, the engine races wildly. fortunately my foot was firmly on the brake, and i was able to get it back into park - whereupon the engine raced even more wildly, until i turned off the ignition. i checked to make sure that nothing was against the accelerator pedal - and there wasn't... i checked to make sure the accelerator pedal was in its correct position and working freely - and it was. so i restarted the car, it seemed fine, and drove home - and a little bit yesterday (monday) morning - the day after the incident. all was fine... but, but, this was a very crowded parking lot where the incident took place - literally hundreds of people - including children - walking around, and many hundreds of other cars and trucks nearby... i am a life-long toyota owner - and this will not change this. but, clearly this uncontrolled acceleration problem with toyota's of late, still exists and must be corrected immediately!!! *tr | |||
