My 2000 lexus es300 was having issues with the rpm ramping up high when the engine is warm up especially when i accelerate at a dead stop. as of today the accelerator stick when i was cruising 55 on the highway and had a hard time stopping my car. i had to pull over into a gravel road with my foot on the brake hard and putting it on park. finally my car skidded and stop. i'm afraid it might happen again and next time i won't be so fortunate to stop my vehicle like i did today. i just need to know what i can do as for my vehicle goes. is there a recall on the model of my car or any lexus or toyotas with the same issue? if there is what is your suggestion i should do to get my vehicle fix. *tr
