Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“1) tapped on brake to take out of gear and stop. Came out of gear, but cruise remained on and accelerator stuck. Had to step on brake hard to get cruise off. 2) yesterday, my daughter was driving and the same thing happened, except this time tachometer went up to around 6. Was very frightening for her. It has happened to me a few times since the first incident around 6-1-99. It has not happened when we have been traveling on the highways, only in town. …”
