Consumer Description

TURNED THE VEHICLE ON AND IMMEDIATELY IT SURGED. THOUGHT IT WAS ME BUT THEN IT CONTINUED TO HAPPEN. SEEMS TO ONLY HAPPEN WHEN FOOT IS ON BRAKE AND/OR WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL ALL THE WAY. JUST STARTED HAPPENING THIS MONTH. TOOK THE MECHANIC TO CHECK, BUT HE COULD NO REPRODUCE ISSUE. I AM NOT SURPRISED THOUGH, AS IT SEEMS TO BE INTERMITTENT. PROBLEM BEST DESCRIBED AS VEHICLE SEEMS TO HAVE SOMEONE ELSE PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR. HAS NOT CAUSED AN ACCIDENT YET, BUT CERTAINLY SEEMS AS IF IT IS INEVITABLE. *KB
