Description of the problem	Accelerated problem: i was on my way home from having maintance work completed on car. My first thought was that toyota had done some thing that created this problem. I was coasting and braking coming up to stop light, which was red, i was going about 1-2 miles per hour, when rpm's went very high. Could not stop car with one foot on brake, needed to use both feet on brake peddle to get control of car, almost hit car in front of me. I was able to stop car apprx 1-2 feet from car in front of me. Brakes or tires were making very loud noise. My wife said that tact was straight up, which is in the area of 7-8 thousand rpm's. Motor was very loud. Once i had control of car i put the car in neutral and car was still roaring, i turned the motor of. When light turned green and cars in front of me pulled away, i again started my car up and appeared to running normal. The only thing that i saw was different was a symbol came on dash board, in bottom right side. It was in yellow with a car and wavy tire tracks which i was told was the abs system. This light stayed on for several minutes and went out. On 01/17/2011, i took the car back to toyota of lake city and they said that everything checked out and could not find any problem with car and could not get to duplicate again. I was told that i could take car home, but found out later that according to toyota rules, i should not have been able to drive car home. Tech was trying to get a hold of toyota head qtrs, but i found out later, toyota head qtrs was closed. Not happy with this and asked for further tests. I brought the car back again on 01/26/2011 and was told that field technician ran further tests on car, toyota had the car for 2 days. I was told that everything checked out and nothing further could be done. They needed the car to accelerate again, while toyota had the car to determine what went wrong.
