Consumer Description

SOME TIMES WHEN STARTING THE CAR WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE THE RPMS GO UP TO ABOUT 1200 AND THEN DOWN TO 800 RPMS. WHEN MY FOOT IS REMOVED FROM THE BRAKE THE CAR WANTS TO ACCELERATE AND GO ON ITS OWN OFTEN. WHILE STOPED AT A STOP SIGN OR STOPED WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE THE CAR WILL LURCH FORWARD WHEN RELEASED, SOME TIMES SPINNING THE TIRES. IT IS PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE AFTER RETURNING FROM A 5000 MILE TRIP IN JUNE, 2013. THE CAR PURCHASED NEW AND HAS A AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WITH APROX. 65000 MILES TOTAL ON THE CAR. THIS IS A ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN AND SHOULD HAVE A RECALL. *TR
