Description of the problem	I was parked in a garage, i started my rav 4, put it in gear and gently, due to experience with acceleration problems, pressed the gas pedal. It suddenly jumped and accelerated causing the suv to hit another vehicle. It could have been worse had i not turned the steering wheel and used the brake. Toyota told me there was nothing wrong. It has been an ongoing problem, but not to the extent it was this time causing an accident. Had my daughter not moved 2 minutes prior,she would have been pinned between cars. Someone is going to seriously get hurt if something isn't done about this.
