Example complaints

“Unintentional acceleration happened with this new 2018 nx as well as my old 2015 nx200t as well. It happened once so far to each. Only accelerated about 3-4 MPH, as I was only going about 5 MPH going into an empty parking lot. When it happened two years ago in my 2015, I thought maybe it was a one time thing but now know it is a real issue! I got flashlight to check if could have been my floormat interfereing with my accelerator pedal but nothing even near it both times! As soon as I hit the brake, it stopped accelerating and came to a stop both times.”
