Consumer Description

THE CAR ACCELERATED IN A PARKING LOT AND HIT A LIGHTPOLE. OVER A $1000 DAMAGE WAS DONE TO THE CAR. WHEN THE CAR HIT THE LIGHTPOLE, IT WAS ON THE RECALL LIST, SO THE RECALL REPAIRS WERE DONE. THE BODY WORK WASN'T DONE. THE CAR ALSO ACCELERATED ONCE WHEN I ENTERED THE GARAGE. NO DAMAGE WAS DONE SINCE I ALREADY HAD MY FOOT ON THE CLUTCH AND WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR UNDER CONTROL. UPDATED 05/24/10 *BF THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THE GAS PEDAL SHIM WAS NOT INSTALLED PROPERLY. UPDATED 05/28/10
