| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | Experienced sudden acceleration on many occasions especially after going at substantial speeds such at 45-50 miles and hour where the car will surge to even higher speeds with constant or little pressure on the gas. This car drives unlike any car we've had before in that you can't maintain constant pressure on the throttle you have to constantly accelerate and then drift in order to stay within speed limits. Keeping slight pressure on the throttle will cause it to constantly accelerate, not maintain its speed. |
