Same as the other incidents submitted below - my car accelerates when I apply the brakes. I have to take my foot off of the brakes and reapply before the car reacts and stops. This fault occurs when I’m slowing down and almost at a stop, so this has happened when I have been in close proximity of other cars in front of me, people in crosswalks, approaching my neighborhood gate, slowing down to make a turn, slowing down when approaching stop signs - I had no choice but to run the stop sign. This has happened 8-9 times. First time it happened, I thought it might have been my mistake. After the 3rd or 4th time, I was sure it was not. I brought my car back to the Acura dealership that purchased the car from. I have taken the car there 3 times and all 3 times, after running inspections, I’m told they are “unable to verify customer’s concerns†because they “cannot duplicate the concernâ€. They gave me my car back to drive. I feel extremely unsafe in my Acura.

This problem has happened before and I almost hit a call in front of me. Most recently, I was stopped and when I put the vehicle in reverse the car started going while my foot was still on the break. I had to pump the breaks a few times before it was able to come to a stop. Luckily there was no traffic at that time or I could have been hit.
