    On october 2013 i approached a red light (no car in front of me) the road surface was wet and the abs kicked in. When i applied the brake hard, the engine started to accelerate and i couldn't hold the truck back. I went through the red light avoiding an accident.

    In late may 2009 while on highway 50 in sacramento just east of the 50/80 interchange in good weather (dry and clear) my 2006 toyota tacoma's gas pedal buried itself to the floor and the vehicle went to maximum acceleration. Braking only had a slight initial effect and then overheated and faded. After a lucky 4 miles i shifted to neutral and the problem resolved. This began around 60mph and maxed around 107. During…
