Consumer Description

MY WIFE DRIVES A 2005 FORD FREESTYLE AND IT HAS A TENDENCY TO LUNGE FORWARD WHEN PUT INTO DRIVE, WITHOUT HER FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL. SHE KEEPS HER FOOT ON THE BRAKE, BUT IT STILL LUNGES. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN SHE PUTS THE CAR IN REVERSE. I DROVE THE CAR SATURDAY AND EXPERIENCED IT FOR MYSELF. I FEEL THAT THIS IS UNSAFE AND AM DEBATING PARKING THE VEHICLE UNTIL SOMETHING IS DONE. *TT
