I pushed on brakes and it accelerated real fast I turn to right and it hit a fence then fence on other side of road I made this turn 3 or 4 times and then it went thru a gate and hit the back fence and the car still was trying to go cut off key.
LED drl have both went bad, for no reason, worked one day didnt the next day thry were covered by thd 36k warranty, however, they have not fixed the underlying issue and once out of warranty, they are $1300 each! Brakes have been resurfaced, front and rear. The car had 70 miles, a xealer traded it anx it sat on the lot for months, perhaps thd rust created pitting(davis honda should have replaced the rotors, nog cut them at 5k then 10k. Current mileage is 16,800. Oh, and the paint chips/road rash is insane.
