Description of the problem	My fiance drives a 2007 toyota rav4. This vehicle is currently not within the scope of the toyota acceleration pedal recall. In december, i was driving her car (she was in the passenger seat), from massachusetts back to our home in connecticut. As i merged onto rt 128 in ma, i had to accelerate quickly to get onto the highway. After safely merging onto the highway, i let off the gas pedal as i always do, however noticed the pedal did not release and was stuck down to the floor. My first reaction was to pump the brake, however, that only slowed us down temporarily. I then tried kicking at the gas pedal to see if i could get it to release, however, that also did not work. I then tried pulling the gas pedal up with my hand and it would not budge. Finally, after continuing to pump the brake to slow down, the gas pedal released on its own. I would estimate that it was stuck for 20 seconds. Unfortunately, i did not report the incident right away, however, i called toyota the day i found out of their recall. This past weekend, i brought the vehicle in for a courtesy inspection, however, toyota service team said there were no issues. I have called the toyota hotline multiple times and was only able to get through to someone once. I reported the incident and the toyota rep on the phone said they would report the incident up the chain... Have not heard back from them. I contacted the better business bureau, however, have not made any progress there. My fiance drives the car daily, but we can't trust that this will never happen again. Our only option is to trade-in the vehicle, and we may do so soon, however, this car should not be resold in the market. I am very doubtful that toyota has solutioned the 'real' issue.

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?
