From a full stop, A/C on, I began to accelerate at a green light. Car stopped acceleration at aprox. 2 miles per hour and coasted thru large intersection before accelerating again. I checked to see if the car was in drive and that the emergency brake was off. I took car to dealer who said no "error code" is available that would indicate a problem and they were unable to replicate the issue. Obviously there is an issue because another driver made this same report. This is a huge concern for me because 1) what happens if the car fails again when I pull into traffic with my kid in the car? and 2) I bought a Subaru because they are supposed to be safe and reliable. I'm seriously reconsidering my decision now.

I was turning into my parking space at my condo, and the car suddenly accelerated and went over the car stop and the sidewalk and finally stopped when I hit a wall and palm tree. I stood on the brake, but it would not stop. I kept thinking "why isn't it stopping". I know I was going slow because I have to make a turn to go into my space, and as my neighbors said, I never drive fast coming into the parking lot.
