Description of the problem	I was driving through a parking lot when i took my foot off the gas pedal and lightly stepped on the brake pedal. As soon as i touched the brake pedal the car accelerated to an uncontrollable speed in a parking lot and i stood on the brake pedal as hard as i could but the car kept accelerating across the parking lot. I had to jam the gear into neutral to keep the car from continuing to accelerate and the rpm's of the engine continued to accelerate until i turned off the engine. Fortunately i did not hit anything in the parking lot and no one was injured. This is the second time this has happened in two weeks in exactly the same way.
