Consumer Description

WHEN I WAS PULLING UP TO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AT A LIGHT, HAVING JUST EXITED A HIGHWAY, MY CAR ACCELERATED INSTEAD OF SLOWING TO A STOP. I WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO THE NEXT LANE OVER TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. LUCKILY THERE WERE NO CARS COMING OR IN THAT LANE ALREADY. I WAS NOT HURT NOR DID ANY DAMAGE. THIS IS ONE OF THREE INSTANCES OF UNINTENDED ACELERATION. THE OTHER TWO WERE WHILE PARKING. NO INJURY OR DAMAGE HAS OCCURRED WITH ANY OF THE INCIDENCES.
