 Description of the problemI was on a job assignment in napa valley, california. I had a rental toyota camry from national car rental. I don't have vin but license was ca. I was driving north of pt reyes on hwy 1 and decided to stop at a scenic area. I took a left off the hwy into the parking area. I was braking and approaching a parking area surrounded by large timbers as parking guards. I was nearly stopped at the timber, braking and preparing to put the transmission into park. My car suddenly lurched forward over the timber, engine roaring. Because i had been preparing to put the transmission into park and did this, the car engine accelerated severely and died. My first thought was that i had been struck from behind and thrust forward but there were no other cars or witnesses. I was able to restart the car, rock a bit and move backwards off the timber. I was bewildered by the strange behavior of the car and didn't connect this event to the recent toyota problems until the recalls and tv reports. I now am sure this was an event of rapid acceleration. I was fortunate in that i had my foot on the brake and had been almost stopped when the lurch forward occurred. After experiencing this, i don't believe the problem had anything to do with the accelerator since my foot was on the brake, not the accelerator. I really wonder if electronic "cross-talk" has been ruled out as this problem seemed to be very related to electronics.

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
