Maxima

  • 2,975 miles
While doing normal driving, on two occasions, one coming down a slight hill and planning to stop at a corner, and once when pulling into my carport, with foot lightly on the brake, I noticed the engine racing at 2000 RPM or so, trying to accelerate. Was able to hold car with footbrake, and, after stopping, problem did not seem to repeat immediately.
