“Dt: the contact stated while trying to make a u turn the cruise control activated by itself. She was trying to get out of traffic when cruise control failure caused the vehicle to crash into an apartment building. The tow truck driver said the throttle was fully engaged. The vehicle has not been inspected. Updated 11/30/2005 -”
NHTSA complaint #10141915, filed 2005-11“Poor alignment between brake and throttle pedal causes right foot to hit throttle upon heavy brake application. The spring tension on the throttle is relatively light, and many people may not notice that this is the cause of acceleration in crisis situations. Could be a scenario in many unexplained acceleration accidents.”
NHTSA complaint #703405, filed 1999-02“The ABS brakes are subject to an intermittent failure problem. The brake pedal goes to the floor & fails to stop the vehicle right away. The stopping distance is extended. Dealer has replaced the master cylinder, vacuum control switch, cruise control vacuum hose, front brake pads, and rotors, consumer states there have been no further problems.”
NHTSA complaint #819626, filed 1997-11“Dt: while the contact's mother was driving at 30 MPH the vehicle would not stop. It felt as though the cruise control activated. The vehicle accelerated to 55 MPH. The vehicle ran into a house and went through it. When the vehicle came to a stop the engine was still running. A police report taken at the scene. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. The tow truck driver looked under the hood, and found the throttle was stuck all the way forward. The vehicle has not been to any mechanic for repairs.”
NHTSA complaint #10141954, filed 2005-11“Egr valve would plug up with carbon. This condition occurred on five occasions, causing the erratic operation of the idle, which in turn, causeed loss of steering and brakes. Dealer /manufacturer notified and refused to do repairs unless cost goes to consumer. Also, informed consumer that corrections were done only on a one time basis. All other times it would be at consumer's expense. Can NHTSA help in this matter.”
