2007 Toyota TACOMA Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

 ComponentVEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Product type codeVEHICLE
 Description of the problemI was initially traveling on a two lane country road and had the cruise control set at 55 mph. As i approached a four lane divided highway ahead i was required to stop, thus disengaging the cruise control. I pulled onto the four lane highway and floored the accelerator to quickly reach the 65 mph speed limit. When i was at the speed limit i eased off of the pedal in order to cruise at 65. The vehicle continued to accelerate. At this point i realized that the accelerator pedal was "glued" to the floor. Thinking it was stuck, i stomped on it a couple of times hoping to free it. This was to no avail. In these few seconds i had reached approximately 95 mph. I had forgotten that the cruise control was still on but not set. I turned off the ignition and coasted to the side of the road. I have no idea if the cruise control was the culprit ,however, my impression was that the throttle linkage was not binding, but again, i do not really know. I can think of no circumstances where this could be considered normal. I tried to duplicate the condition with the cruise both on and off but was unable to. I plan on notifying toyota also.
