| Description of the problem | Was returning home via the interstate from fl; we exited to refuel. I filled the truck up at a shell station as we were leaving the pumps i started my tundra placed my foot on the brake to place it into gear and suddenly without warning after placing the vehicle into drive it took off just like i had press the accelerator it although i had not even placed my foot on the gas pedal. I immediately depressed the brake as forcefully as i could the vehicle kept accelerating; i placed the vehicle into neutral with the engine still revving like the gas pedal was still being depressed. I then turned off the key. This was the first and only time i had experienced any such problem since purchasing this vehicle. So far nothing has been done to the vehicle in relation to this problem. |
