Description of the problem | Sometimes when slowing to a stop, the car engine accelerates. I have to step on brakes very hard to keep the car from going forward. On november 5, 2015, i was slowly pulling into a parking space and the car accelerated, i stepped on brakes really hard but the car went forward... Into a stone wall. No one can tell me what the problem is so i wind up still driving a car that may decide to lurch forward into traffic, a wall, another car. The vehicle is at the dealership now and i am waiting to hear about the status. I was told by the service center person to call gm and tell them that i have a potential product liability case. I am at a loss at what to do. |
