What owners wrote

I was in the process of entering a highway from a driveway. I hit the gas pedal and the car took off uncontrollably across the highway, across lanes of traffic, went up an embankment and then back down where the car shut off. I had not driven the car since the accident, but when I picked up the vehicle at the dealership where the convertible roof had been worked on, I noticed the electronic throttle indicator light was "on". This may the reason it accelerated uncontrollably.

While retracting the convertible top, the top retracted into the trunk as usual, the trunk lid remained upright and would not go down. There was no response from the convertible top switch and the car could not be driven.
