I was pulling into a parking space at a speed of approximately 10 mph when my Toyota Camry 2011 suddenly accelerated. I hit the brake immediately to stop the car's forward acceleration to avoid hitting a tree. The brake stopped the forward motion of the wheels with the car body lurching forward.
Upon stop and then the vehicle moves forward the fuel in the tank moves causing the baffle in the tank to make a banging happens in full tank fuel or 3/4th of the tank. Informed the dealer and no proper diagnose action responded.
2011 Toyota Camry. From a stop when the vehicle moves forward the fuel in the tank moves causing the baffle in the tank to make a banging sound. The sound is louder with more fuel in the tank.
Brand new 2011 Camry, 4 cyl, 19 mpg city, 21 mpg highway after multiple repeated measurements. Driving in manual mode does not help as the manual mode is very misleading on the steptronic as well.

I was driving into a parking area, idling forward so that I could back up and drop off my colleague at her house. I had my foot on the accelerator, barely idling forward, and all of a sudden the pedal was floored and the car was surging forward with a parked vehicle right in front of us. I jammed on the breaks, and immediately turned off the engine. Both the passenger and I were terrified. I went home, and will never drive that car again. I do not trust Toyota to fix it or own up to what is really going on. The accelerator floored itself, and then stuck there. I could easily have killed a pedestrian, my passenger or myself.
