Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Twice, during a time period of 10 minutes, the vehicle accelerated suddenly when the brake was applied. I could hear and feel the accelerator kick in when my foot was on the brake -- the vehicle was propelled forward. First at a stop sign before pulling out onto a busy city street, then 10 minutes later when stopping to allow cross traffic to clear before pulling out of a parking lot. Pavement was dry (no ice, snow, or water). I know that my foot was on the brake and not the accelerator. Called the dealer and brought it in immediately. Over about a 3-week period, the dealer evaluated the vehicle and had a safety engineer from corporate come in to inspect the vehicle, and the conclusion was that nothing was wrong with the car, and nothing showed up on the vehicle logs/data to indicate a problem. I said i refused to drive the car anymore. We decided to trade it in, and they didn't give us any trade in assistance because they said nothing wrong with the vehicle. However, they did give us $2,500 coupon towards a brand new, 2020, vehicle, which we used.
