What owners wrote
Sometimes when slowing to a stop, the car engine accelerates. I have to step on brakes very hard to keep the car from going forward. On november 5, 2015, I was slowly pulling into a parking space and the car accelerated, I stepped on brakes really hard but the car went forward...into a stone wall. No one can tell me what the problem is so I wind up still driving a car that may decide to lurch forward into traffic, a wall, another car. The vehicle is at the dealership now and I am waiting to hear about the status.
Car is releasing gasoline's fumes . Very strong and is giving m a headache which also makes it difficult to breath while driving
