Consumer Description

ON 4 SEPARATE INCIDENTS, MY CAR ACCELERATED ON IT'S OWN WHILE SITTING STILL. THE LAST INCIDENT WAS ON MARCH 23RD WHILE I WAS SITTING STILL IN A MCDONALD'S DRIVE THRU. MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE AND THE CAR SUDDENLY ACTED AS IF I HAD STEPPED FULLY DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL. I HAD TO REALLY PUSH MY FOOT DOWN ON THE BRAKE TO KEEP IT FROM LUNGING FORWARD. I IMMEDIATELY PUSHED IT INTO PARK AND THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I AM EXTREMELY WORRIED IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN! *TR
