Consumer Description

1. I WAS DECELERATING AND BRAKING, COMING TO A NEAR STOP AT AN INTERSECTION, WITH MY FOOT ONLY ON THE BRAKE. MY CAR, 2001 BMW 325I, SUDDENLY STARTED ACCELERATING WHILE MY FOOT WAS FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE. IT LURCHED FORWARDS OVERRIDING THE BRAKES UNTIL I SHIFTED THE CAR INTO PARK. I BUMPED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THE CAR THEN REVVED DOWN AND WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN NORMALLY AFTERWARDS. 2. FIRST TIME 3. HAVEN'T HAD IT IN FOR INSPECTION YET. *TR
