Consumer Description

THERE IS AN ISSUE WHEN GOING VERY SLOW OR STOPPED WHERE THE CAR 'LUNGES' FORWARD (OR BACKWARDS IN REVERSE) WHILE THE GAS PEDAL IS NOT BEING PRESSED. IT HAPPENS WORST WHEN A/C IS ON AND THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED. IT HAS BEEN GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE, AND NOW I CAN DUPLICATE IT TO WHERE I HAVE MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT STILL MOVES ABOUT 6 INCHES FORWARD WITH NO WAY TO STOP IT. THE VEHICLE REVS DURING THIS TIME AND SOMETIMES DIES RIGHT AFTER DOING IT AS WELL. IT SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING WITH THE THROTTLE BODY AND IS A DEFECT WITH THE CAR. I HAVE FOUND OTHER USED FREESTYLES AT VARIOUS DEALERSHIPS AND WAS ABLE TO GET 2 OF THEM TO DO THIS SAME THING. *TR
