 Description of the problemI own a 2006 toyota matrix. At about 40k i began noticing when i pushed the gas pedal from a stop that it sometimes lagged, other times the pedal seemed very touchy and to take off excessively, causing passengers to notice the sudden acceleration. This occurs spontaneously but at least once every 14 days. It is always from a stop such as at a light or driveway, after the car has been driving even a few feet but it has never occurred on the initial press when the car is first cranked and moved, only after the wheels have moved. As a side note, the computer was replaced at about 77k and this did not correct the issue. I have the oem floor mats with the latch system that holds the mat in place. I have never had the pedal appear to even touch the mat. While i have never had the terrible experience of having the pedal stick and continue to accelerate, i am hoping that this information will help the cause of the issues come to light. There is definitely a problem with the gas pedal and the computer telling the throttle when and how much to open. Please do not let this fall solely on the floor mats. There is more to the story!
