“While driving my 2008 Gmc Yukon Hybrid in my neighborhood, approximately 20 MPH and decelerating, the car suddenly accelerated on its own. I felt a movement in the gas pedal, experienced a sudden acceleration, and I applied the brakes which made it stop immediately. This could have had a tragic outcome if I'd been in a parking lot.”

“Vehicle brake system responds erratically about once every 100 miles. It has caused numerous near miss accidents. This problem has happened on numerous occasions but I'll describe the most recent. I was driving down a local highway at about 50 miles an hour. Traffic was backing up and came to a stop. I hit the brakes (no danger/emergency, just a normal stop). The vehicle slowed normally to about 15 miles per hour and then the brakes let go and the deceleration stopped even though my foot was still on the brake pedal. …”
