About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
Upon being at a stop engine revved, and vehicle accelerated, landing in an intersection; which caused a collision. Consumer's vehicle hit a semi truck. Upon impact, the air bags did not deploy. Due to a previous incident vehicle was in cruise control mode. However, vehicle accelerated, and took off on its own. Consumer had to slam on brakes to stop the vehicle.

1 month after purchasing this vehicle, it began to accelerate on its own, and then it stalled. Mechanic claimed cheap gas was the cause. Vehicle continues to accelerate on its own. On 08-22 vehicle accelerated through toll plaza and I had a hard time stopping vehicle, once vehicle stopped it stalled and an indicator light came on. Towed to dealer for repair. 2 days later vehicle accelerated on its own, and the same indicator light came on. Dealer contacted and claims problem with pressure from gas cap. The explanation provided seems ridiculous based on the number of other consumers with this same problem. Problem with accelleration continues and I have not been given any reasonable information as to why. I truly don't believe that we are all usingf the same gas. I don't think that the recall work for recall 99V325000 was performed even though I took the vehicle in for the work and that this is why the accelleration problem still exists. I noticed in the listing of complaints at least 7 consumers that have experienced my problem. This vehicle is not safe and I hope that you will investigate this.

Throttle: Car intermittently jerks in first and second gears. Service person at dealership has been present and experienced this and said throttle has problems, but problem continues to be unresolved. Technician says he can't duplicate it. This jerking occurs several times a week and after the car has warmed up. This is dangerous on the roads in the winter and can cause loss of control of the vehicle. Tailgate assembly has been repaired at least two times - it fails to shut properly - which allows exhaust fumes to enter vehicle. The tailgate has to be shut three or more times before finally closing. Problem has not been fixed. Same problem - not shutting properly - with passenger side rear doors. During the winter, inside of windows stayed "fogged up" preventing a clear view of traffic. Defrost failed to clear moisture inside vehicle. Dealership said this was normal.
