Consumer Description

CAR COULD NOT START WITHOUT PRESSING ACCELERATION PEDAL THIS MORNING (03/30/2016). AFTER PRESSING ACC PEDAL AND TURNING THE KEY ENGINE STARTED. IT REPEATED THE SAME WAY WHEN CAR WAS STARTED GOING TO HOME. ALTHOUGH, IT TOOK MUCH LONGER TO START THE ENGINE. DROVE HOME AND THEN TOOK KID TO SOCCER PRACTICE. ON TRAFFIC LIGHT, WHEN GREEN LIGHT WAS ON, I WAS TURNING RIGHT BUT CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT CONTROL. I MOVED GEAR TO NEUTRAL AND RPM PIKED TO AT 2500. I HAVE A VIDEO OF IT AFTER I STOPPED ON RED LIGHT. CAR HAS 71086 MILES AND IS IN "PREFECT" CONDITION. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON FOR COUPLE OF DAYS BUT THERE WAS NO MIL CODE PRESENT. AFTER I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND THEN ON, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF AND NO CODES WERE PRESENT, NOT EVEN PENDING ONES.
