1993 Toyota Camry Vehicle speed control Problems

“I was driving at 25 MPH when let off the gas pedal but the car continued at that speed and when I attempted to tap the pedal it only sped up more. I held the brake pedal in attempt to slow it down to no avail. I shifted it into neutral and the engine went to 4000+ RPM. I had to turn the ignition off and let it coast to a stop. Of course when I turned off the engine I lost power steering and brake boost. On vacation in ohio when happened.”

“Accelerating at a high rate while in reverse occurred on two separate occasions. On two occasions, when the vehicle was placed in reverse, the vehicle shot back at a very high rate. There were suspicions that an alarm company disabled the relay device that was installed on the vehicle could have been the reason for the problem. Toyota claimed to have found no problem.”
