Description of the problem	After parking the truck for about an hour, i went back into the truck . As i started the truck the 4-wheel lo light appeared on the dash with an indicator beep. The problem with this is that the truck was in 2-wheel drive and never engaged in any 4-wheel operation. At the point of this i tried to put the truck in reverse and it was not there it was neutral, so then i shifted into drive and that was neutral also, i repeated this 4 or 5 times in disbelief. At that point i put the vehicle in park and exited the vehicle not realizing that the vehicle would have no park. I then walked along side the truck and so it roll down my driveway and hit the garage. The truck only rolled about 20 feet approx, but caused about $5,000. 00 in damage between the 2. I preceded to then call hoffman toyota and explain. The dealer was accommodating at first offering a loaner vehicle while they ran tests. The service manager told me that in all his time in the business he never heard of such a thing, saying only operator error could cause this. My frustration level was rising but remained calm. Along the way i was talking to toyota corp about my problem and had a case manager appointed to me. Toyota corp had sent a field tech to the dealer for further review. His test also showed no vehicle error found and that no related cases of transmissions coming out of park. He also indicated that this would only be possible from operator error. So i now had to take responsibility for my house garage and truck repair. After picking up the vehicle i had a friend ask me if i looked into the ntsb. Gov website, and i said no, we then proceeded to the site and it took approx. 10 seconds to see a related occurrence with a 2007 tundra with 16,000 miles and happened twice to the individual. I feel very uncomfortable parking this truck thinking this could happen again, it is clear that there is some type of electronic malfunction and what causes this to happen at will is unclear.
