LR3

  • 114,000 miles
I was pulling into a staples store parking space and went to stop. The LR3 accelerated as I was braking and the powerful engine revved & wanted to keep driving the LR3 forward. I kept my foot on the brake and immediateley shifted the LR3 into park; shifted back & forth before the LR3 stopped idle. Luckily there were no people or cars directly in front of me, but I did go across the lane and nearly hit a parked car. I am so concerned that I drove directly to the library; talked to a friend who said it sounded like "sudden acceleration", so I googled "2007 LR3 sudden accleration"; this issue is on Land Rover forums, but there is no consistant definitive cause/solution to the issue. Filing a complaint with NHTSA and calling the mechanic tomorrow.
