Consumer Description

CAR ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN. WHEN I LET OFF THE BRAKES IT TOOK OFF VERY FAST AND GOT UP TO 70 BEFORE I HAD TO MASH THE BRAKES VERY HARD AND PULL OVER AND FORCE IT INTO NEUTRAL AND TURN THE KEY TO STOP THE ENGINE. WHEN RESTARTING THE ENGINE IT CONTINUED REV IN PARK AND NEUTRAL WHICH PREVENTED ME FROM PUTTING IT IN DRIVE'
