Description of the problem	I have already made a previous complaint about acceleration problems with my rav4 that caused an accident. I am still having issues regarding this problem. My car will suddenly jump while barely pushing the gas pedal. It does not do it all the time but will do so randomly which is even worse because one doesn't know when it will happen. It is scary driving a vehicle that from minute to minute you have no idea when this will happen again. It did it again just yesterday as i was taking off from an intersection, i barely missed the car in front of me. I wished toyota would acknowledge this situation as serious before someone dies. I know of the recall with floor mats but it doesn't include my car. I have read that there are others with this same issue. Why is toyota not acknowledging this situation? Are they waiting for someone to die?
