 Description of the problemI was driving on interstate 55. I went to pass a semi truck. My speed at this time was 65 mph. I stepped on the accelerator and started to change lanes, the transmission down shifted to a passing gear and the throttle was wide open and it stayed that way. I shut off the ignition and turned it back on, the throttle was still wide open. I tried this a total of three times, now i am going well over 80 mph. I finally left the ignition off and coasted over to the side of the road. My wife asked what had just happened and i told her that the throttle was stuck open. I asked her to look on the floor so she could she nothing was stuck anywhere near the accelerator pedal. I might add the cruise control was not on. I restarted the truck and cautiously went to our dinner engagement. After dinner we used extreme caution on our way back home. I tried several times to replicate the problem. It never did produce itself on our return trip. I called toyota on monday morning and after telling them the problem they wanted me to drive the truck back to the dealer i refused. I made them come tow it. It was checked out by the field engineer and was returned to me. They said nothing was found to be out of order. But went into detail that the floor mats were not installed correctly. This truck had 149 miles on it. It was only 4 days old. *jb
