Description of the problem	As i was pulling into a parking space (maybe 5 miles per hour) and put my foot on the brake to stop, my 2013 toyota highlander lunged forward so hard that it went over the concrete spacer, a grass median, the curb and into the street beyond the parking lot. I was able to brake and stop the acceleration, but it was so sudden, fast and unexpected that i scraped the passenger side on the vehicle next to me. A by-stander commented "i don't know what happened! All of a sudden your car just raced away!" i have driven for over 45 years without an accident. I have been a loyal toyota customer, buying one for my son and daughter as well as this vehicle and i thought whatever problems toyota had were taken care of but now i am afraid to drive my vehicle.
