| Description of the problem | Intermittent sudden acceleration in a 2009 toyota rav4 without further depression of the gas pedal which causes the vehicle to lurch forward. The gas pedal is not jammed or slow to raise nor does it stick. This has happened on numerous occasions since march 2009 with no common denominator such as speed, road conditions, etc. This has even happened when the vehicle was in park and without the gas pedal being depressed at all, the vehicle will race suddenly and just as quickly go back to idle.
