Consumer Description

PULLING INTO THE GARAGE AND THE CAR SPONTANEOUSLY ACCELERATED CAUSING ME TO SLAM ON BRAKES. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THE CAR STARTED ACCELERATING SPONTANEOUSLY SINCE I PURCHASED IT. THE FIRST TIME I WAS STOPPED AT A STOPLIGHT WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHEN THE CAR STARTED REVVING AND WANTED TO JUMP FORWARD, IF I HADN'T THROUGH THE CAR INTO PARK I WOULD HAVE HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. *TR
