: the contact stated while traveling 35 mph, the vehicle was shifted into second gear and it accelerated beyond effort. The brakes and steering failed after this occurred. The vehicle was turned off. While attempting to restart the vehicle, it would not start. The vehicle was towed to the dealership, where it was determined the air intake hose cracked and caused a vacuum leak. The hose was replaced.
