Consumer Description

WE WERE BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE & THE CAR ACCELERATED AS THOUGH I HAD PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, BUT THE FIRST TIME GOING IN REVERSE. BOTH OTHER TIMES THE CAR WAS IN DRIVE. THE FIRST TIME I WAS ON THE FREEWAY AND I ASSUMED MY FOOT HAD ACCIDENTALLY PUSHED THE GAS, SO I IGNORED IT. THE SECOND TIME I WAS ON A COUNTY ROAD, AND AGAIN I ASSUMED IT WAS MY FAULT. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I COULD HAVE REALLY HURT SOMEONE, AND THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BE VERY DANGEROUS. *TR
