“On 05/01/2013 I entered into a parking lot in a shopping mall, with my right foot on the brake pedal while braking to stop at a 15 or 20 miles per hour, the vehicle suddenly and unintentionally accelerated, the rpms jumped about 2000 more (1500 to 3500 aprox.) and I left the tires prints over the pavement because I put the brake fully pressed while the engine was accelerating without touching the gas pedal. …”
NHTSA complaint #10514513, filed 2013-05, 9,500 miles“From idle at a full stop: uncontrollable full throttle occurred causing me to run over a concrete curb barrier. I could not stop car by applying full brake pressure for at least 50 feet.”
NHTSA complaint #11208400, filed 2019-05, 90,203 miles“As we were driving on a residential side street, going about 25mph, coming up a slight incline, the car stopped accelerating. We were able to get it to the side of the road. We turned it off and on and nothing happened. About 10-15 minutes later the engine started but would not accelerate. We were only able to go about 2mph. We were able to get it to a mechanical shop nearby. The next morning when they pulled the vehicle in, they experienced the same issue. When the turned it off and back on to do more tests the car was working fine. …”
NHTSA complaint #10926310, filed 2016-11, 86,100 miles“#1) this vehicle was purchased brand new in 2010 and from the beginning when I press on the accelerator pedal the car will sometimes just goes into a dead mode and does nothing for a few seconds. If I try to accelerate and the car doesn't react I sometimes have to mash on the pedal to get the car to go. This has proven to be a very serious problem when I have to merge or turn quickly out of a side street of through an intersection in a quick manner. Its as if the car has a hiccup or some type of delay from pedal to motor? …”
NHTSA complaint #10616674, filed 2014-07, 300 miles“On two occasions - one in an empty parking lot and another at a stop light in heavy traffic - while braking to stop, the vehicle unintentionally accelerated and wanted to lurch. Had brake fully pressed and the RPM's jumped from 1500 to 3500. Only way, on second occasion, to stop completely was to immediately put vehicle into park. Rpm's then returned to 1500. These instances happened to me as the driver and I had others in the vehicle with me as witnesses. I won't let my 16 year old son drive this vehicle because of this.”
