What owners wrote
Unintended acceleration from stop when brake released. From sept 2006 until present. Approx $3000 each time. Hit garage wall. (approx 5 collisions with wall) still does it. Finally found out when & why.
Every time it rains, my rear passage door fills with water. When there is a heavy rain, water also goes into the passenger front floor pan area.
