Consumer Description

OUR FREESTYLE HAS A REPEATED TENDENCY TO SURGE FORWARD FROM STOP WITH NO APPLICATION OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. LAST YEAR WHEN WE TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THEY COULD FIND NO PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR. THE PROBLEM HAS SINCE GOTTEN REPEATEDLY WORSE AND WE HAVE SURGED INTO OTHER CARS WHEN TRYING TO LEAVE A PARKING SPACE. THIS PROBLEM IS NOT CONSISTENT, BUT IT OCCURS ON A REGULAR BASIS; SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK. *TR
