What owners wrote
I was parked in shopping center. I came out of cvs pharmacy and carefully backed my car out. I began a left turn lane (still in shopping center) not into main road and suddenly the car's speed escalated rapidly and I could not stop it - it jumped the curb and in trying to avoid hitting shops car crashed headlong into light pole. It would appear that the gas accelerator was stuck. The airbag came on and I was injured by that. The front end of auto was badly damaged.
While traveling on interstate with cruise control engaged at speed of ~72, went to apply brakes and brake pedal was hard and did not move. Cruise control did not disengage. Had to hit brakes several times before they worked. This incident occurred again 2 days later. Same exact issue.
