Description of the problem	I have a 2006 toyota avalon and have had the accelerator get stuck four times over the past two years. Each time was when i was pushing the accelerator down hard to gain speed. Three times i was forced to put both feet on the brakes as hard as i could to slow the acceleration and luckily i was in open stretches where i didn't have intersections or oncoming traffic to contend with. The fourth time was just recently, after i had heard about the recall and after i had verified the floor mats were secured properly. I actually reached down with my right hand and unstuck the accelerator. The floor mat was not in contact with the accelerator at all. This is a very unsafe condition. When this has happened, it has been terrifying and i am lucky it did not happen on a busy street. I literally had to put the full force of both feet on the brakes to slow down the uncontrolled acceleration. When i drive now, i am very careful not to fully engage the accelerator, for fear of it getting stuck and i also make sure i'm able to reach down to grab the accelerator if it gets stuck again. I have told my wife about this to make her aware of the problem and a way to "fix" it while driving, but this is not an acceptable condition and toyota is wrong in saying it's strictly a floor mat issue.
