Consumer Description

OUT OF NOWHERE THE ES 350 LEXUS ACCELERATED IN REVERSE. I HAD TO PRACTICALLY STAND ON THE BRAKES BOTH FEET WITH ALL MY EFFORT TO STOP THE CAR WHILE THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE. IT WOULD NOT GO INTO NEUTRAL OR DRIVE OR PARK OR TURN OFF DESPITE HOLDING THE IGNITION KEY. THE WHOLE INCIDENT LASTED ABOUT A MINUTE OR SO AND SUDDENLY, LIKE A SWITCH WAS HIT, THE ENGINE STOPPED RACING AND THE CAR BECAME IDOL AND NO DAMAGE WAS DONE TO ME OR THE CAR OR THE HOUSE. *TR
