Example complaints

“My car began lurching as soon as I pressed the accelerator to leave my driveway. Cars go 50 MPH on my road despite the 35 MPH signs, I was scared I was going to be rear ended and had to yank the car over to the side of the road immediately. I was afraid I was going to be rear ended. What if the wires had been only mostly chewed and they came loose while I was on the parkway??”
NHTSA complaint #11043136, filed 2017-11, 15,682 miles“My car accceilerated twice without the driver touching the accelerator. It happened while parking as the car was creeping forward in the parking space and suddenly sped up. I had to stamp on the brake to stop it. I do not know why, but I found out that cars of the same make , model and year in japan were recalled for spontaneous acceleration and it was a software problem. I have not had an accident, but it is clearly dangerous and could result in accident or injury if the car hit and object or a person. If I had not been able to stop the car, I would have hit the cement wall of a building.”
