Consumer Description

I WAS PULLING INTO A GAS STATION AND STARTING TO SLOW DOWN, BUT THE CAR KEPT ACCELERATING. I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK, BUT THE ENGINE WAS RACING. I PUSHED DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL VERY HARD SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE CAR STOPPED THE EXCESSIVE ACCELERATION. ANOTHER TIME I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT ABOUT 60 MPH AND THE CAR STARTED TO ACCELERATE, BUT I ALSO PUSHED DOWN VERY HARD SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE ACCELERATION STOPPED. *TR
