Had started vehicle after being parked for a few hours. The engine was idling fast. Put vehicle into gear & had foot on brakes, vehicle took off. Finally idling was slowed & vehicle operated well. Contacted dealer & had vehicle picked up. Was informed by mechanic later that other vehicles do same fast idling. Was placed on diagnostic machine. Now waiting for new computer component system.
