Description of the problem	I am writing about my current car, a toyota 2006 camry, because it relates to an accident i had with my 2005 camry. I am aware that toyota has not recalled the 2006 model. When i start up my 2006 camry after it has been in park, with the engine off, for as little as a 5 minute stop or overnight in the garage, when i shift into drive and release my foot from the brake, the car moves by itself, fairly rapidly, without my foot touching the accelerator. After about 3/4 of a mile along the road during which i alternately apply the brake and lift my foot from it, still not touching the accelerator, the car finally begins to operate normally requiring for the first moment some pressure on the accelerator. When i return home, regardless of how far or long i have driven, after pausing to open the garage door (by remote) i ease my foot from the brake pedal and the car glides into the garage on is own. While i am able to control the car safely so far i am uncomfortable with the situation because i had a major accident with my 2005 camry in august, 2006. It happened as i emerged from a car wash. When i shifted into drive from neutral, the car accelerated itself and stuck in high speed, at least 80 miles per hour. I am sure that i tried to stop it by applying the brakes immediately and certainly in the end before i purposely crashed into a tree after a terrifying drive dodging people, cars, and buildings. I survived although sustaining a back injury which necessitated an operation, but the car did not. I did not communicate with toyota about it and do not know if my insurance company did. Last week i took my 2006 camry to my toyota dealer and described what is happening with the car and they assured me that this "independent" acceleration is normal and intended by the manufacturer.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
