While accelerating to pass a vehicle that was signaling and operating well below the speed limit, my vehicle experienced sudden and continued unintended acceleration. I was able to bring the vehicle to a stop while fighting against the engine within an intersection but the engine continued building revs, bouncing off the limiter while my foot was entirely removed from the accelerator pedal and fully applied to the brake. During this time I had moved the gear selector to neutral, only furthering the engine's revs, and attempted to place the vehicle into park without success, before having to reach beneath my dashboard, foot still on the brake, to pull the accelerator pedal up. I verified both visually and by feel that the pedal was stuck in it's position entirely on it's own, there was no outside object or floormat inhibiting it's ability to return.
When I'm slowing down for a red light, then the light turns green. And I hit the acceleration the car would jerk. And same thing when I make a left turn. It would jerk and feels like I have no acceleration.
Vsc light turns on and off,but has been constantly on now.
My 2008 Toyota Sequoia started to accelerate from a stop( with my foot still on the brake) without pressing on the gas. It took both feet standing on the brake to try and stop my vehicle. It pushed my vehicle into the car in front of me. My tires with screeching and my vehicle was pushing the car in front of me. It finally stopped after a few seconds as I was going to try and put the car in park or neutral. My floor mat was in correct position- not jammed and my foot was not on the accelerator. I was happy to have witness with me as no one would have believed me.
