ON NOVEMBER 16, 2009, I PULLED MY 2007 TOYOTA TACOMA PICKUP INTO A PARKING SPACE AT A LOCAL WALMART STORE PARKING LOT AND AS I APPLIED THE BRAKES TO STOP, THE ENGINE ACCELERATED CAUSING A "FORWARD BUCKING" MOTION FORCING ME INTO THE CAR PARKED IN THE SPACE IN FRONT OF ME. DUE TO THE DAMAGE TO THE CAR, I REPORTED THE INCIDENT TO MY INSURANCE AND ALSO REPORTED THE MATTER TO TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE BECAUSE SIMILAR INCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED ON PRIOR OCCASIONS (AND SINCE) BUT NO DAMAGE WAS DONE. I AM AWARE OF THE FLOOR MAT RECALL BY TOYOTA FOR THE PICKUP, BUT IN MY STRONG OPINION, THIS "ACCELERATION" ISSUE IS NOT CAUSED BY THE FLOOR MAT. RATHER, I BELIEVE THE ISSUE IS DUE TO A FAULTY DESIGN OF THE BRAKE PEDAL/SYSTEM AND/OR THE ACCELERATOR. THE CURRENT DESIGN ALLOWS MY FOOT TO CATCH THE ACCELERATOR WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE ACCELERATOR AND THE BRAKE PEDAL ARE LESS THAN 3 INCHES APART AND THE BRAKE PEDAL IS ONLY ABOUT 1INCH HIGHER THAN THE ACCELERATOR WHEN NEITHER PART IS BEING DEPRESSED. HOWEVER, WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, IT BECOMES LEVEL WITH THE ACCELERATOR AND IF MY FOOT IS NEAR THE SIDE OF THE PEDAL, MY FOOT CAN ALSO CONTACT THE ACCELERATOR, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO ACCELERATE WHILE THE BRAKE IS BEING APPLIED. THIS SITUATION HAS OCCURRED ON AT LEAST FOUR OCCASIONS, BUT ONLY THE ONE INVOLVED ANOTHER VEHICLE. WHEN I REPORTED THIS MATTER TO TOYOTA, I WAS ASKED NOT TO HAVE THE PICKUP REPAIRED/CHECKED UNTIL IT COULD BE INSPECTED BY A TOYOTA TECHNICIAN. AFTER EIGHT W
