Description of the problem	May of 2009 - leased 09 lexus is250; having only driven it for about 1 week when entering the onramp of i-35 in texas, suddenly realized that car was accelerating out of control. The cruise control locked in by itself. Rpm was off the charts. I could not exit at "my" exit and continued south on i-35. I tried to brake, but nothing happened. I called my husband and told him my car was out of control. I kept trying to brake... Still nothing. Somehow the car started to slow, i got on the shoulder and kept going for 1-2 miles. I tried to put the car into neutral... Rpm's again were out of control. I think that then i immediately put the car into "park" and pushed the engine start/stop button and waited for help. Luckily, i or no one else was injured in this incident. Lexus assured me it was because of the floor mats, but i've never been fully convinced. It has only happened that one time, but honestly, that's enough for me. I tried to trade the car in, but salesman said it was not a good idea ($) since the car was new.
