Consumer Description

I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PARK MY CAR BY BACKING INTO THE PARKING SPACE. AS I WAS GOING FORWARD TO POSITION THE CAR BEFORE BACKING UP INTO THE SPACE, MY CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND I HAD TO QUICKLY STEP ON THE BRAKES BEFORE IT SLAMMED INTO A TREE. EVEN NORMAL EVERYDAY DRIVING I HAVE NOTICED THAT THERE IS A SURGE FORWARD WHILE APPLYING THE ACCELERATOR. I AM REALLY CONCERNED BECAUSE I DO A LOT OF HIGHWAY DRIVING.
