Description of the problem	2005 toyota matrix. Consumer states unintended acceleration. tgw the consumer stated as he was approaching a red traffic signal to a local shopping center, the vehicle started to accelerate. Since he was nearing a red light, he already had his foot on the brake pedal. The consumer stated it was obvious something was wrong, so he immediately placed the transmission in neutral. The rpm of the vehicle's tachometer raced between 3,000 and 4,000. When the traffic light turned green, he placed the gear in drive, kept his foot firmly on the brake and maneuvered the vehicle into the parking lot and into a parking space. He placed the gear into park, but the engine continued to rev between 3,000 and 4,000. He kicked the accelerator pedal in an attempt to possibly lower the rpm, but to no avail. The consumer turned off the engine, exited the vehicle and proceeded to inspect the accelerator pedal area for possible signs of obstruction on the floor, in the carpet area or on the floor map. There was none. He opened the hood of the car and looked in the engine compartment for possible signs of debris, but there was none. The consumer stated it is obvious there is an electronic/computer glitch and not a problem with a sticking gas pedal. jb
