Description of the problem	I was at the walmart in bolivar, mo 6:30 pm on march 4th. Got in my tundra put it in reverse, backed up and put it in drive. As i pushed on the accelerator to go forward slowly the truck accelerated on its own. I applied the brake and turned left to avoid hitting a car and hit a yellow concrete post while the truck continued to go forward about 20 feet. I then put it in neutral and finally got it to stop. I then tried to open my door and it would not open. I went ahead and drove home about 3 miles and parked the truck. I called my insurance company that night to report the accident and left a message. I called them again the morning of march 5th, 2010 and gave them the details. A claims adjuster has assessed the damage on the body of the truck but those repairs have not yet been completed. On march 11th, 2010 i received a recall notice in the mail from toyota on the truck for a accelerator pedal reinforcement bar installation. I called the dealership that same day to schedule the recall and they said they could not get me in until april. When i told them about the accident they change my scheduled time to that same day, march 11th at 6:00 pm. I drove the truck to the dealership and they installed an accelerator pedal reinforcement bar. I have owned this truck for approximately 2 years and this is the first time the accelerator stuck. I have a flawless driving record and consider myself to be a very careful driver. I am confident this was not a driver error. I was in a busy walmart parking lot directly in front of the entrance of the store so i was naturally being cautious.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
