I experience sudden acceleration on my Toyota Corolla 1997 when the cruise control is active and set on speed. It happened about 4 times overt he last three years and I can correct it by turning off the cruise control. Sometimes it would happen when I set the speed and sometimes would happen when I accelerate with the cruise control set on speed.
