 Description of the problemOn several occasions while driving my wife's 2007 toyota rav4, the motor revved momentarily while i was braking. The last instance was in the summer of 09 while driving through a campground at approximately 5 mph. A person crossed the road in front of me and i applied the brake to let him pass. While driving through the campground, the motor revved (i am estimating it revved from idle to about 17-1800 rpm) and the vehicle lurched forward, startling the pedestrian crossing in front of me. Fortunately my foot was on the brake and i just applied the brake harder and no one was hurt. On several other occasions previous to these incidents, i experienced similar problems, and i had previously dismissed them thinking that perhaps i could have stepped on the brake and gas at the same time. I know this not to be the case in this latest instance because my wife and i were returning from the beach and i was barefoot, so i know did not step on both the gas and brake simultaneously. The gas pedal also did not stick. I was idling through the campground at the time without my foot on the gas at all.
