Description of the problem	This is the second incident i've experience with an engine surge and unintended acceleration. I was driving approx. 25mph towards an intersection. The light ahead was red, so i took my foot entirely off of the accelerator and let the car coast. It gradually slowed down as it always does, nothing unusual. As i came up on the red light i applied the brakes and rolled to a soft stop. I waited at a red light with my foot resting entirely on the brake pedal. All of a sudden--the first thing i noticed was the sound--the engine roared and the car tried to race forward despite my foot on the brake. I pressed harder on the brake to no avail. The car was fighting against me wanting to race forward. There was a stopped car ahead of me and i was trying not to crash into it. In desperation i stood up on the brakes as hard as i could and the car skid. I had to steer into oncoming traffic to avoid rear ending the car in front of me. I pulled the emergency brake and the car came to a stop diagonal across two lanes of traffic. I brought the car into toyota for a second time. Dealer ran extensive tests on electronic and engine systems and said there was nothing wrong. They stated that the computer "history" showed no record of the incident. They offered no explanation nor any remedy. I am frustrated beyond belief that toyota is hiding behind "we can't find anything wrong" and is not trying harder to find the cause. There are no floor mats in my car, and there are no problems with the gas pedal. I would like to make very clear that my foot was entirely off of the gas pedal for at least 15 seconds prior to the failure. I am convinced that this incident was caused by a computer mis-fire or electronic malfunction that caused the engine to open full-throttle while the car was stopped and brakes engaged. Toyota does not know what is wrong, and they don't know how to fix it --this is a huge problem! Peoples lives are at stake!

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.
