Consumer Description

ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS I EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION. THE FIRST TIME WAS, MAY 26, 2009, AND THE SECOND TIME, JANUARY 15, 2010. WHEN THIS OCCURRED I WAS APPROACHING A STOP SIGN APPLYING THE BRAKE TRAVELING ABOUT 10 MPH. THE BRAKE BEGAN TO FADE AND THE CAR STARTED TO ACCELERATE. I QUICKLY PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL, WHICH CAUSED THE MOTOR TO INCREASE IN RPM AND THEN WENT INTO IDEAL, WHICH ALL HAPPENED IN A FEW SECONDS. BOTH TIMES I BROUGHT THE CAR INTO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP WITHIN AN HOUR OF THE OCCURRENCES. BOTH TIMES THEY WERE UNABLE TO IDENTIFY THE CAUSE. AFTER HONDA CHECKED THE CAR OUT ON JANUARY 15, 2010 I RETURNED ON JANUARY 26, 2010, LEAVING THE CAR WITH THEM FOR 2 DAYS FOR A MORE INTENSE EVALUATION. AGAIN, THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. *TR
