“I was sitting in traffic at a dead stop,then when the traffic light changed to green I put my foot on the gas pedal. As soon as I did the accelerator pedal stuck,went all the way to the floor and caused me to hit the vehicle in front of me. Also my gas gauge didn't work and would randomly move back and forth,even if I had a full tank of gas. Then,the driver side brake light continued to go out due to the melting of the part of the bulb,not the bulb itself. My electric sliding door on passenger side came off the track due to the cord and pulley/motor in the door. …”

NHTSA complaint #10206212, filed 2007-10, 87,000 miles“The van will suddenly roll backwards while in gear when stopped on an incline- even a slight incline. Recently, this almost caused me to have an accident as my van almost rolled into the car behind me. This problem has occured many times, but it does not ocur every time I am stopped on a hill (incline). When it occurs, the van rolls back very fast, not gradually. I took it to the dealer today (11/2/00) and he said that this was normal. He aslo said that he has had several people come in and complain about the same problem. I believe it is a design defect. …”
