Description of the problem | When braking vehicle accelerates in forward and reverse. October 2011, i was slowly backing and upon applying the brakes vehicle surged backward almost hitting two men directing me. The next day i carried vehicle to an open field and tried unsuccessfully to duplicate the problem. I assumed driver error. Several days later when braking going forward at about 25 mph the vehicle surged forward. Over the next year the defect was noticed in varying degrees. Four times when starting the engine with the brake pedal depressed the engine raced. April 2013 while slowly backing out of a parking space i braked to avoid a vehicle moving behind me. My vehicle surged backward almost hitting the vehicle behind me. Local dealer can find nothing wrong with vehicle. |
