Had the same incident happen 4 times now in the runabout s**box (2011 corolla). When accelerating suddenly at 3/4 throttle, the accelerator pedal gets stuck at 3/4 or full by the edge of floor mat (Genuine Toyota Item). Looking at the floor mat, this looks physically impossible, but this is the 4th time. I can't seem to see any recalls for Corolla Floor mat online. I can never get it to happen by trying, but it will always happen in very awkward situations: first time was accelerating away from traffic lights into a slip lane, and I nearly crashed head on into a concrete divider, another time was overtaking and the last time was after swerving to avoid a line of cars stopped in the middle lane of the freeway). I would never have believed someone if they told me this had happened. Am a bit embarrassed to bring this up with Toyota as they might think I'm on something. Is the car cursed or something?
