Consumer Description

WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AND MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR, THE CAR WILL SUDDENLY SURGE FORWARD. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN THE WEATHER IS HOT. WHILE SHOPPING TODAY IN 90+ TEMPERATURES TODAY, THE CAR ACCELERATED ON MORE THAN THREE OCCASIONS AS I PULLED INTO PARKING SPACES. THE CAR HAS ACCELERATED ON AT LEAST TWO OCCASIONS WHEN I HAVE STOPPED FOR PEDESTRIANS. FORTUNATELY, I HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. TODAY, I CAME VERY CLOSE TO CRASHING THROUGH MY GARAGE CABINETS WHEN THE ENGINE SURGED AS I PULLED INTO THE GARAGE AND WAS INCHING FORWARD TO CLEAR THE GARAGE DOOR. *TR
