Consumer Description

WHILE APPROACHING A RED STOP LIGHT UNDER LIGHT BRAKING FROM 35 MPH, I LESSENED THE PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO REDUCE THE RATE OF DECELERATION. AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE ENGINE RPM SURGED UP AND THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD. MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE AT ALL TIMES AND I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY BRING THE VEHICLE TO A FULL STOP WITHOUT ENTERING THE INTERSECTION. AT NO TIME DURING THE INCIDENT WAS ANY PRESSURE APPLIED TO THE ACCELERATOR AS MY RIGHT FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION WERE COLD (EXTERNAL TEMP @ 34 DEGREES F) AND I HAD TRAVELED APPROXIMATELY .5 MILES AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE WITH ABOUT A 30 SECOND WARM UP PERIOD. *TR
