Description of the problem	Vehicle was parked overnight on our front driveway facing the garage. Where it always parked everyday. The weather was warm and clear my wife was in the vehicle and was preparing to buckle up and drive to church, i entered the vehicle into the passenger seat and buckled up. She started the vehicle and immediately accelerated through the roof. I yelled at her to get her foot off the accelerator and she yelled at me that she was no where near it. I then told her to pull the floor mat / carpet back and it was already back and locked down to the floor. I told her to turn it off. The car idled down to stop once key was turned off. We sat there for a few moments, i told her to depress the accelerator pedal once and try to start the vehicle. The car started normally we let it warm up for a moment and drove away. She told me she was glad i was in the car to see the event because it had happened 3 other times in the last 45 days. Fortunately she was not traveling at a high speed when it occurred or on a busy roadway or school zone.
