Description of the problem	Rapid acceleration - this has happened twice to our subaru. The first incident was about a year ago. My wife was driving and i was the passenger. We drove into our driveway and sat their talking while the garage door opened for a few minutes. Her foot was on the brake the entire time. Suddenly the outback surged forward at a rapid speed. Thank god for subaru emergency accident braking system that stopped the vehicle within inches of our back garage wall. I remember my wife saying "what just happened? I didn't do anything we were just sitting their my foot on the brake and it just lunged ahead rapidly. I didn't do anything to stop the vehicle other than step on the brake. Rapid acceleration #2 - this happened two weeks ago and i was driving with no passengers. I was pulling into our garage and again the outback rapidly surged ahead. I stood on the brakes to stop and had no response. The eye sight emergency braking system kicked in and stopped the vehicle with a panic stop. I am positive in both cases we were braking the vehicle and our foot was not on the accelerator. I feel unsafe driving this vehicle. If someone is standing in front of this vehicle when it rapidly accelerates they will be injured or killed and i don't want to ever see this happen. I feel subrau should supply me with a free loaner car until this problem is fixed. I know their is no safety recall issued and the dealer will only replace the control module at customer expense.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
