Consumer Description

This car is the PHEV Pacifica. Apparantly when you push on both pedals the brakes do not take precedence. I was in a median turning and car unexpectedly moved forward 6 to 9 or so inches. 2nd time, I was suspicious at what was happening. 3rd time was sure. None for last year. I'm at 2 yrs and 33,000 miles now. Yes, I drive with two feet, for last 56 years. After getting use to the amount of free play in the pedals, it isn't happening anymore. Right foot for forward, left foot for stopping. Makes sense to me. And I actually drive straight shift also but only a little bit now.
