Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“On two occasions (once from a stop and once while moving at 30 MPH) I have pressed the gas pedal to the floor to accelerate quickly and the car has malfunctioned. Both times the electronic stability control immediately became disabled, the ESC warning indicator lights came on, and the engine stopped responding to my pressing the gas pedal. I was able to maintain forward movement but I could not accelerate. I could press the pedal to the floor without the RPM gauge needle moving. There was a real danger of being hit from behind when this happened because I was slowing down unexpectedly. …”
