What owners wrote

May 29th, 1026, while driving along I-80 in north platte, nebraska the jeep suddenly, without warning accelerated on me causing an accident. I could not get the jeep under control, ran off the road and into a highway sign before getting control. One witness even stated that it looked as if the jeep "just took off". Been having issues with irregular rmps and now this. Why the sudden acceleration with loss of control?
