Consumer Description

SPONTANEOUS ACCELERATION INCREASE AND RPM'S INCREASE CAUSING CAR TO INCREASE SPEED. WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC, I HAD COME TO A STOP AND NOTICED MY RPM'S WAS STAYING AT THE 2000 (#2) RANGE AND WHEN I RELEASED THE BRAKE THE CAR TOOK OFF ALMOST HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT. I THEN NOTICED THE CAR INCREASED ACCELERATION ON ITS OWN. ON A BACK ROAD I DROVE FOR MILES WITHOUT TOUCHING THE GAS. VERY, VERY DANGEROUS!!!!!!
