Accelerator Stuck problems of the 2010 Toyota Highlander

Follow-up ltr to NHTSA re 4/8/10 correspondence on behalf of re incident of sudden unintended acceleration after recall fix by dealer on her 2010 Toyota Highlander. The consumer became concerned about the recent accelerator pedal issue and contacted the dealer to see if she could get out of the lease. The dealer informed her there was a fix to the problem, so the consumer made an appointment on February 15, 2010. On March 2, 2010 the accelerator pedal became stuck multiple times. Twice, the accelerator pedal stuck when taking off; it was extremely hard to push, to the point where it actually went down, and the vehicle jerked. Then on the way home, the consumer pushed the brake pedal down to slow down and noticed the vehicle seemed to be going much faster. She pushed harder and harder on the brake and when she looked down the rpm's were going straight up and she was not slowing down. She continued to hold the brake pedal down and after a few minutes the brakes started working. The consumer contacted the dealer the next day, but was informed there was nothing they could do since the fix had already been completed.

On Jan. 26,2010, I was stopped behind cars at a traffic light. My 2010 Toyota Highlander started creeping forward/I thought I'd taken my foot off the brake, and then the engine started revving to an outrageous level. The harder I braked the more the engine revvedand the car tried to jump forward. It was so loud the driver ahead of me turned around to see what was going on behind him. I thought I was going to rear-end him until I remembered to put the car in neutral. Eventually the engine returned to its normal rpms, but I was really shaken. I drove about 1 mile to my destination and called Toyota and had the car towed to their service area. They checked the car and after 24 hrs. Told me they couldn't find anything and my car was made in japan so it wasn't under the recall. I don't feel safe in this vehicle and I don't feel Toyota really knows or is revealing all the problems they are having. My problem occurred when I was at a standstill at a traffic light, so I don't believe the stuck accelerator story. What can I do to get some satisfaction? at this point the problem has only occurred once, but I've lost all confidence in my new vehicle. . . Less than 4000 miles on it!.
