Description of the problem	First instance 4/25/04 slowly pulling into a parking place with a light touch on the accelerator, the engine revved so fast the truck cleared the parking strip and crashed into a pillar on the sidewalk (picture available) $5000. 00 damage to truck & $6000. 00 damage to the pillar. Second instance 10/09/06 stopped at a red light. Engine revved up, put it in neutral & engine revved faster. Shifted back into drive and engine returned to normal in a couple seconds. Third instance 02/05/07 just stopped at a red light. Engine revved up and went back to normal before i could turn off the key. If there had been a car in front of me i would have crashed. First two times i took the truck to the dealer. Each time they could not find anything and gently mentioned that maybe the accelerator & brake were both engaged at the same time. First time my foot was on the accelerator & the other times it was only on the brake. That was the first thing i checked. The service mgr. Advised me not to drive it so i rented a car for a couple days. They had someone from toyota come to check it out. Could not find anything wrong. Last time was just the other day. Have not called them yet. 2003 toyota tacoma four door dbl cab. Purchased 07/29/03 capitol toyota. *jb

A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
