Consumer Description

"RUN AWAY ENGINE" THERE HAVE BEEN 5-6 OCCURRENCES WITHIN THE LAST 2 YEARS THAT ARE UNEXPLAINABLE. INFREQUENTLY WHILE TRYING TO STOP EITHER IN TRAFFIC OR FOR PEDESTRIANS THE ENGINE SUDDENLY REVS TO APPROX. 2200 RPM WHILE I'M ON THE BRAKE. ON 3/5/17 I WAS WITH A EXFORD ENGINEER WHO WITNESSED IT HAPPEN IN TRAFFIC. WHEN I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK TO TRY AND STOP THE CRV, THE ENGINE REVVED WAY UP BEFORE IT SNAPPED AND WENT BACK INTO A NORMAL DRIVE SITUATION AND WENT DOWN TO NORMAL RPM. IT NOW HAS BEEN REPORTED TO HONDA 3X AND BACK TO A DEALER TWICE. I WILL NOW CALL HONDA AGAIN BUT THIS IS GETTING MORE DANGEROUS EACH TIME. IT HAS HAPPENED IN CA AND AZ BUT WHILE REOCCURRING, IT'S NOT A REGULAR ITEM. IT APPEARS IN THE SOFTWARE OR ENGINE COMPUTER TO HIM.
