The vehicle accelerated by itself as I parked in a parking space. I steped on the brake but the vehicle just surged forward. Never happened before, but just that day morning as I parked in front of my working place, some malfunctions either in computer or overall vehicle system occurred that day.

The car displayed multiple errors on its multi-information display. The errors include brake system problem, ABS problem, road departure mitigation system problem, and adaptive cruise control problem. Those error messages went away on my way to elk grove Acura but I was able to record them on my phone. There was still an error message in the acuralink system for the electric power steering that I showed the service advisor. He deleted the message without telling me and said those errors are caused by a low battery. He went to test the battery and it tested fine so I was told that there was nothing to fix. He sent me home after refuse my request to document the errors with Acura. He made it like I never brought the car in and those problems never existed.

The contact owns a 2016 Acura Ilx. While the contact's daughter was driving 2 mph the vehicle jerked forward independently while approaching a stop. Additionally, the vehicle failed to slow down even after the driver removed her foot from the accelerator pedal and depressed the brake pedal. The vehicle was taken to a dealer twice, but the cause of the failure could not be diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and stated that the contact should bring the vehicle back to the dealer. The approximate failure mileage was 6,000. Updated 07/21/17 updated 11/27/2017
