NHTSA Complaint #10477019 — 2011 HONDA ACCORD

AS I WAS COMPLETING A LEFT HAND TURN, I APPLIED PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE AND MY CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE DESPITE MY FOOT BEING FIRMLY APPLIED TO THE BRAKE. I CONTINUED TO MAINTAIN PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE YET THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE WHERE I HIT AN EMBANKMENT / TREE, I STEERED THE CAR BACK ONTO THE ROAD AND TURNED OFF THE IGNITION. I CONTACTED HONDA THOUGH WAS GIVEN A REPORT INDICATING THAT THERE WEREN'T ANY DIAGNOSTIC CODES & THE HONDA FACTORY ENGINEER DROVE THE CAR 5 TO 6 MILES WITHOUT ACCELERATION ISSUES. I'M GREATLY CONCERNED BECAUSE I DROVE THE CAR FOR OVER 13,000 MILES PRIOR TO THIS WITHOUT HAVING ACCELERATION PROBLEMS AND I'VE READ ROUGHLY 18 OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH THE 2011 ACCORD ON THIS SITE CITING VARIOUS ACCELERATION PROBLEMS! JUST SEEMS TO ME THERE SHOULD BE SOMETHING MORE I SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO, BUT I CAN'T AFFORD TO JUST WALK AWAY FROM THE CAR! *TR
