| Description of the problem | This has happened multiple times over the past year and has increased in frequency the last 2 months. At random times, in town or on highway with varying speeds, the rpm will jump without me using any more pressure on the gas pedal, which causes the car to accelerate quickly and without warning. Then, the rpm will go back down in the same manner just as quickly. |
