Consumer Description

I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED UNEXPECTED VEHICLE MOVEMENT WHEN MY FOOT WAS NOT ON THE ACCELERATOR. MY VEHICLE HAS MOVED AS MUCH AS 1-2 FEET WHEN THE BRAKE WAS NOT APPLIED OR LIGHTLY APPLIED. I DESCRIBE THE MOVEMENT AS A "LUNGE". ALSO, AS OTHERS HAVE REPORTED,, THE LUNGING HAS OCCURED WHEN MY FOOT WAS NOT ON THE ACCELERATOR AND WAS EITHER FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE PEDAL OR LIGHTLY ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. I HAVE ONLY NOTICED THIS CONDITION WHILE IN "DRIVE". LUNGES HAVE BEEN SUDDEN AND UNEXPECTED, AND GENERALLY ARE OF BRIEF DURATION. THE CONDITION SEEMS WORSE WITH THE AIR-CONDITIONING IN OPERATION AND/OR WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED. *TR
