| Description of the problem | When stopped at my closed driveway gates i put the car in reverse and suddenly without touching the gas pedal it took off in (drive) forward. It drove so hard it sent the gate flying and broke the metal lock. I was in shock and slammed on the brake. It stopped but i was in shock. It just took off. It did it again after reporting it to my dealer and insurance company. They want to see it after the repairs are done. Also the front detector will suddenly stop my rav4 2017 while i'm driving 55 mph for someone passing me in a right turn lane. Bought it last summer. Is this a lemon and does the lemon law apply. |
