“I was at the entrance gate to the parking lot where I was working, at the time, about to put my card in the card reader, to open the gate. The car was in drive and my foot on the brake. The engine started to race without warning and I had to stand on the brake pedal with both feet before I finally got the ignition key turned off. I restarted the engine, in park, and the engine took off again. I shut it off, played around with the cruise control buttons (which were in the off position) and restarted the car. This time it was fine. The car never did it again. …”
