One problem related to car accelerates on its own has been reported for the 2011 Lexus IS250. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
During the month of December 2013, I experienced several incidents of unintended acceleration. I also had several before December that I didn't pay much attention to. What they had in common was that the vehicle was almost stopped with my foot on the brake when I experienced a surge. In one instance, I was easing out of a strip mall parking lot onto a major highway with just the idle speed momentum moving the car with my foot on the brake. The car surged and pulled me into the roadway blindly but fortunately there were no oncoming vehicles. Happened again on March 20, 2014 with full documentation on my part.
