Consumer Description

WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION THE VSA LIGHT CAME ON AND MY VEHICLE STARTED SLOWING DOWN AND JUMPING LIKE BRAKING ON IT'S OWN. WITHOUT MY EVEN TOUCHING MY BRAKE PEDAL. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 40 MILES AND MY 2005 ACURA MDX DID THIS. I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE A TRUCK WAS COMING BEHIND ME AT ABOUT MORE OR SO 60 TO MILES. I HAD TO LITERALLY VEER OFF TO THE BREAKDOWN DOWN LINE. THIS WAS VERY SCARY. PLEASE FIND A WAY TO CORRECT THIS ON THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE. I AM SO AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR PASS 40 MILES ANYWHERE NOW.
