“Got in car, put foot on the brake and put it in gear. The car jumped forward and I had to press brakes with all my strength to keep it from accelerating to full “throttle”. It did the exact same when I put it in reverse. I turned the car off, got out, gave it a couple of minutes and tried two more times. It did the same thing every time. It is like the accelerator is pressed to the floor as soon as you put it in gear without you touching it. I almost hit my house due to the wheels being turned before the first try. I called a tow truck to take it to the dealer. …”
NHTSA complaint #11498134, filed 2022-12“UNKNOWN - My ID4 stalled with ALL errors appearing today (2nd time in 2 days). I was rolling to a stop at a light, around 10mph. The car errored out suddenly and I was stuck. The car could not move for 1-2 minutes. I had to attempt to turn on/off multiple times, put it into park then drive and park and drive until it would start moving again. I was lucky this happen at a stop light otherwise I would have been rear ended on the freeway, which cause extreme harm. The dealer checked the 12v and said it was fine. They do not have an appointment for another two months.”
