Description of the problem	In the summer of 2009 my toyota 2008 sienna xle awd engine speed slowly started to climb without my foot on the gas pedal. I don't remember the exact sequence of events that followed but i believe i placed it into neutral, stopped, placed it into park (automatic transmission) and turned the engine off then on again. After that the engine responded only to my actions on the gas pedal. It did occur to me that the pedal could have been caught under the floor mat so i checked its position and it was some distance from the pedal and could not have been the cause. I have owned this vehicle from new in may 2008 and this undirected acceleration has only occurred once. The car has just completed 20,000 miles. I reported this to the dealer who serviced my car for the 20,000 mile interval and via toyota's web site but i want to make sure you are aware that sienna vans can also have this problem.
