problem #1

Apr 152004

Neon 4-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 80,000 miles
While driving in bumper to bumper traffic the consumer's vehicle was involved in a collision. The owner glanced away for a moment, looked back and the brake pedal was applied and the accelerator kicked in. There was a feeling of the vehicle braking against acceleration. Then the vehicle hit the car in front. There was no investigation into the accident, however, the owner believed the accelerator may had something to do with this accident. Since then it has happened several times in emergency braking situations.
