Description of the problem	Tl- the contact purchased on 07/29/03 a 2003 toyota tacoma four door dbl cab. The first failure occurred on 4/25/04 while slowly pulling into a parking place with and lightly accelerating, the engine revved so fast the truck drove over the parking strip and crashed into a pillar on the sidewalk, causing $5000. 00 worth of damage to truck, and $6000. 00 damage to the pillar. During the second occurrence on 10/09/06 vehicle stopped at a red light and the engine accelerated so the contact put it in to neutral and engine revved faster. The driver then shifted the vehicle back into drive and engine returned to normal in a couple seconds. During third occurrence on 02/05/07 while stopping at a red lightthe engine revved and went back to normal before the contact5 could turn off the key. If there had been a car in front of the contact's vehicle it would have caused a crash. The first two times the contact took the truck to the dealer. Each time they could not find anything, and gently suggested that maybe the accelerator and brakes were both engaged at the same time. First time the contact's foot was on the accelerator, and the other times it was only on the brakes, that was the first thing the contact checked. The service manager advised her not to drive this vehicle so she rented a vehicle for a couple days. They had someone from toyota come to check it out, but they could not find anything wrong. ak
