Consumer Description

I OWN A 2005 LEXUS ES 330. LAST JUNE AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PARK ON THE 3RD LEVEL OF A PARKING GARAGE, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN. I WAS ACTUALLY AT A STANDSTILL AND THE VEHICLE ENGINE ROARED AND PROCEEDED FORWARD ON ITS OWN. I PUT BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKES AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK. THE ENGINE THEN DIED DOWN. I CHECKED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE FLOOR MAT WAS NOT OBSTRUCTING THE ACCELERATOR AND IT WAS NOT. AT THE TIME, I CHALKED IT UP TO "A FLUKE"; HOWEVER, IN LIGHT OF THE PROBLEMS THAT HAVE OCCURRED IN RELATIONSHIP TO THE TOYOTA VEHICLES, I FELT I SHOULD REPORT THIS OCCURRENCE. I PERSONALLY DO NOT THINK THIS WAS RELATED TO THE ACCELERATOR, I THINK IT HAD TO DO WITH THE ELECTRONICS. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY FURTHER OCCURRENCES; HOWEVER, IT IS WORTH A NOTATION. *TR
