Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN AND DIED...WHILE MY FOOT WAS PUSHED ON THE BRAKE...MY AIR CONDITIONER WAS ON...I TURNED THAT OFF AND CONTINUED TO TRY AND RESTART IT TOOK A COUPLE OF TIMES WHEN IT FINALLY DID IT SHOWED MY THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT...AND IS STILL ON...THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND FIXED MOST PEOPLE WHO OWN THESE VEHICLES HAVE CHILDREN INSIDE THEM! IT IS VERY SCARY AND UN COMFORTING!! I JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE USED ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED AS I AM A MOTHER OF 3 WITH ONE INCOME AND THOUGHT I WAS PURCHASING A RELIABLE CAR AND NOW THAT MY EXTENDED WARRANTY IS UP SOMEONE NEEDS TO PAY FOR THIS SO I KNOW I CAN GO TO WORK AND TRANSPORT MY CHILDREN SAFELY!! *TR
