Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)I WAS DRIVING MY 2005 SCION XB TO MY OFFICE. AS I SLOWED DOWN AND TURNED INTO A PARKING SPACE WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES THE ENGINE ACCELERATED TO 3000 RPMS JUMPED THE CURB AND RAN INTO THE BACK OF THE BUILDING. WHEN I REPORTED THESE FACTS TO A TOYOTA DEALER THEY SAID THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF A CAR DOING THAT AND IT MUST HAVE BEEN A MISTAKE ON MY PART. SINCE THE REPAIR OF THE CAR IN A PERIOD OF TWO YEARS THE ENGINE HAS DONE THIS FOUR OTHER TIMES THE REPAIR PEOPLE SAY THEY CAN'T FIX IT UNLESS IT HAPPENS WHEN THEY ARE WORKING ON THE CAR. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS IN THE ELECTRONIC CONTROLS FOR THE ACCELERATOR. I GET NO RESPONSE FROM TOYOTA. *TR
