    My car suddenly accelerated upon exiting a car wash as i changed from neutral to drive. The design of the exit lane from the car wash driveway and access to the four lane street where the car wash is located does not allow for any speed as there are two sharp turns . My car sped across the driveway, into a culvert and toward the heavy traffic. I applied the brakes immediately and steered the car away from the…

    When the vehicle is started with a cold engine the car will surge in gear, accelerating the car unexpectedly. The frequency of the problem is intermittent. The car will surge with enough force that the amount of pressure one ordinarily exerts on the brake pedal to hold a car stationary is insufficient. *nm

    My 2005 honda accord ex has three features that compromise my safety: 1. The right-hand corner of the sun visor, when in its fullest position (not at an angle), obscures nearly half of the rearview mirror. This has caused a number of "near accident" events. 2. The honda is designed to downshift when going downhill. Not only does this diminish gas efficiency, but can cause skids in icy weather. 3. The brakes are…

    I bought this brand new car in 2005 and good maintenance on it. For about a month, my car had been acting funny when i came to a stop, periodically. Maybe once a week or so. By acting funny, i mean it did not seem to downshift immediately when i came to a stop, sometimes acting like someone bumped the car from behind barely. Last saturday, around 9 pm right at the stop sign, the transmission locked up and i could…

    1. Noticed when drove off of the lot of the dealer. I thought that it was just more power with the vehicle because it is a v-6, which i am not familiar with. 2. There is a hard shift from 1st to 2nd gear, which you can feel underneath your feet, almost like an annoying vibration. 3. I took it to the dealer and they had no idea what it was. They then wanted to disconnect the abs to see if it could clear the problem,…
