Accord Hybrid

  • 75,622 miles
Auto experienced "sticky accelerator"/"sudden acceleration" problem especially when engine cold. Necessary to apply excess pressure on accelerator to get car rolling from stationary. In one incident, car suddenly accelerated pushing the wheel over a parking space wheel stop and into a fence post causing moderate damage to the vehicle. Local san jose, ca Honda dealership kept the car for two days and claimed it could not reproduce the problem.
