Consumer Description

CAR WAS IDLING WAITING AS A GAS STATION, FOOT ON BRAKES, IN DRIVE GEAR, ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE ENGINE STARTED TO REV UP (LIKE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL), I SHIFTED TO PARK AND PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKES. CAR STOPPED REVVING. CAR WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY. THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AGAIN, ON OR ABOUT SEPTEMBER 23, 2008, IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE WAITING ON LINE AT THE GAS STATION. DID THE SAME AS BEFORE, SHIFTED TO PARK, PULLED EMERGENCY BRAKES ON. REVVING STOPPED. RETURNED CAR TO DEALER, EXPLAINED PROBLEM AGAIN. THEY ROAD TESTED CAR, CHECKED IDLE CONTROL, AND TRANSMISSION PCM FOR FAILURE CODES AND RETRIEVED NONE. THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPEN AGAIN APPROXIMATELY 3 MORE TIME AFTER THAT AND THE PROBLEM HAD NOT RECURRED SINCE. DID ANYONE ENCOUNTERED A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH THEIR HONDA ACCORD? IF I DID NOT SHIFT TO PARK, WOULD THE CAR ACCELERATE EVEN IF MY FOOT WAS STILL DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL? I READ ON ONE OF THE HONDA FORUMS THAT SOMEONE SAID IT WAS A SOFTWARE PROBLEM? APPRECIATE ANY FEEDBACK. *TR
