| Description of the problem | While coming to a stop the car started to accelerate on it's own. I put more pressure on the brake, but would not hold, i put the car into neutral and turned off the key. When i restarted it was ok but my air bag light was on. When i got home i parked and pressed the key remote to lock, the doors locked but the lights did not flash. I then restarted the car, shut it of and relocked. This time the lights flashed but after about 30 sec. The car alarm would sound. I again restarted and shut it off, relocked and again the alarm. I then disconnected the battery and reconnected. Everything seems to be working properly now and the air bag light also went out. |
