Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“On two occasions in 2005, we had incidences of sudden acceleration. We own a 1999 Oldsmobile Silhouette minivan and in general it has been a trouble-free vehicle. It is well-maintained by the chevrolet-Oldsmobile dealer. In the first incident my wife was driving and easing into a parking place with her foot on the brake. When about 5 feet from a car parked in front of her, the car suddenly accelerated. Since she had her foot on the brake she managed to stop the vehicle before hitting it. …”
