2006 Toyota Avalon - during first year of ownership, vehicle engine revved strongly while applying the brake while going about 30 mph. The car sounded like it waned to go 60 mph or more and leached, but I was able to stop it by pressing harder on the brake.this happened on 2 or 3 occasions. At first I thought I was just not use to the vehicle and hit the brake and gas pedal together, but I had serious doubts. I now realize I was experiencing the current problem. It only happened during the first year of driving and has not happened to me since. I doubt this was due to a stuck pedal, but some electronic issue is at fault (perhaps the cruise control system).

Sept. 27, 2009, I was driving my 2006 Toyota Avalon into my garage at a slow speed. When I hit the brake, the car accelerated causing me to drive into the workbench, braking it and some wallboard behind it as well as damaging the car before the car finally came to a stop.
