Consumer Description

I DID NOT HAVE THE CRUSE CONTROL SET, NOR WAS I USING IT. AS I ENTERED AN INTERSECTION AFTER I STOPPED, I TOUCHED THE GAS PEDAL AND IT WENT TO THE FLOOR UNAIDED AND SPED ME INTO THE INTERSECTION. THIS HAPPENED TO ME ON TWO DIFFERENT OCASSIONS ON MY WAY TO WORK. I AM SO AFRAID OF THIS CAR THAT I AM NOW DRIVING NOT OVER 30 MPH TO AND FROM WORK AND PARKING THE CAR - NOT TO DRIVE IT ELSEWHERE. OLDSMOBILE REFUSES TO RELEASE ME FROM MY LEASE. THE SHOP CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM. OLDSMOBILE SAYS THEY MUST DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID IT WILL DUPLICATE WHILE I AM DRIVING AND CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I CAN GET NO HELP FROM GM OR OLDSMOBILE. SINCE IT IS A LEASED VEHICLE, ALL I WANT IS RELEASED FROM THE LEASE SO THAT I CAN PURCHASE A SAFER CAR. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.*AK
