Consumer Description

THOUGHT CAR WAS ACCELERATING ITSELF. DEALER CHECKED, "NOTHING WRONG". STILL HAPPENS, EVEN THOUGH I AM MORE CAREFUL. I READ SOMEWHERE THAT THERE WAS AN INVESTIGATION GOING ON REGARDING THIS MATTER. I REALLY THINK THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS PEDALS, AND SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT IT. AT LEAST AN INVESTIGATION WILL BRING THE WHOLE THING UNDER PROPER SCRUTINY. THANK YOU.*AK
