 Description of the problemMy 2006 toyota tundra pickup truck has developed maximum acceleration on seven (7) occasions when i made hard accelerations in order to pass other vehicles while also engaging the resume mode of the cruise control. On the first two (2) occasions i applied the brakes heavily with no results and my vehicle continued to accelerate and i was forced to knock the truck out of gear and the engine continued to run a max rpms and i keep pumping the gas pedal until the engine finally slowed. The last time a similar event occurred i had a open highway after passing a slower vehicle so i cut the ignition off and my vehicle slowed down, i turned the ignition back on and my truck went to max acceleration again. The third time i cut the ignition off i heard a thump in the floor board close the gas pedal and the vehicle slowed and operated normally when i turned the ignition back on. I was traveling on a interstate the first two times this problem happened and just avoided hitting other vehicles. On the last occasion i had time to try a different solution. In each event the breaks were not effective at all. On 12/2/10 my toyota dealers service dept. Checked my truck after i made the above complaint and found no problems. In the past i had raised the issue with the dealers service dept and regional toyota rep. And was told by both that the 06 tundra did not have acceleration problems.
