Toyota Camry 2009 - while driving on the highway the car suddenly accelerated from 65mph to 90mph without even touching the gas peddle. It was full throttle. When trying to stop it became very difficult for the brakes to depress. Had to push down on brakes very hard to get it to slow down. The next day driving on a local street I pulled out of my street and started to accelerate and the it just accelerated out of control, going from 30mph to 50mph. Tried the brakes and they felt like they weren't working until you had to step on them all the way. That was two days in a row that this happen. Took into the dealership and they said they couldn't find anything wrong with the car or duplicate the problem. I have researched this issue and have found that there is a lot of complaints of this very same problem. Something needs to get done or there will be a lot of accidents.
