Consumer Description

STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WAITING TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN. AFTER TRAFFIC CLEARED PRESSED ON THE GAS AND CAR IMMEDIATELY STARTED REVVING REALLY LOUD. LOOKED AND IT SAID IT WAS AT 6000 RPM EVEN THOUGH I WAS BARELY TOUCHING THE GAS. THE CAR THEN STARTED DECREASING SPEED WITHOUT ME TAKING MY FOOT OFF THE GAS. I QUICKLY PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND IT WASN'T UNTIL I PUT THE CAR IN PARK THAT IT FINALLY STOPPED REVVING SO LOUD. I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE STARTING IT AGAIN AND DRIVING. IT THEN STARTED FLIPPING FROM SHOWING THE BLU-RAY INFO TO APPLE CARPLAY REPEATEDLY ON THE INFO SCREEN.
