2009 Volkswagen Routan Vehicle speed control Problems

“On 6/21/15, I was driving on the highway with cruise control set at approximately 75mph. I was not accelerating, nor had my foot on the gas or brake petal. Without any warning, the gas petal pushed to the floor and the vehicle began accelerating quickly. I immediately turned on my hazards and turned off the cruise, but the vehicle continued to accelerate in excess of 100mph. I feared colliding with other drivers on the two-laned highway, and began braking against the car's acceleration, which was quite difficult. …”

“10/7/12: entering onto road, began acceleration up to 20/25 MPH -then all power, controls dead. Lost power steering and coasted into parking lot. Shut car down, flooded/pumped accelerator pedal. Difficulty starting but worked, drove like normal, again. 10/14/12: turning from sidestreet, on to main street -going 20 MPH. Lost all power again-manually turned coasted car into left middle turning lane. Re-started, operated normal.”

“Even after rebuilding the entire transmission, every time the vehicle is placed into reverse, there is a pause, then a jarring as it slips into r gear; but every time acceleration is attempted in r, there is a delay, followed by consistent lag; if attempting to r up an incline, if speed is not already over a specific minimum, vehicle then assumes action as if it is in n. Even an incline slope of simply backing into a driveway, if vehicle is not entirely across the incline, it's not possible to continue controlling a reverse movement, though engine responds as though in n. …”

“While driving, the vehicle accelerated on its own and shook like it was about to stall when braking. The throttle lightening light intermittently came on. When parked, the engine revved exceptionally high and I had to shut it off to stop it. The engine has been replaced along with all electrical wiring and the radiator and radiator fan. The dealership has said all recalls have been repaired. Another diagnostic has not found anything wrong. The interior lights do not dim but are either on or off. The sliding doors will stop working or work partially. …”

“Car electrical system goes crazy, speedometer needle goes crazy. Radio turns off and on, then the vehicle turns off completely. It turns on after. Sometimes all this happens before turning off, sometimes it turns off suddenly with no warning. Have spent a lot of money trying to fix issue with no luck. Driving it makes me very nervous but I can't change cars right now. It has happened both on small streets and highway in motion.”
