Consumer Description

I WAS TRYING TO STOP FOR A RED LIGHT. THE ENGINE RPM SUDDENLY INCREASED AND WHEN I PRESSED THE BRAKE THE RPM KEPT INCREASING. I SHIFTED FROM DRIVE TO PARK AND THE RPM STILL KEPT INCREASING. I FINALLY PUMPED THE GAS PEDAL WHILE IN PARK AND THE RPM WENT DOWN. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN ABOUT 20 MINUTES LATER WHEN I ACCELERATED AFTER BEING STOPPED AT A LIGHT. *TR
