Description of the problem | When decelerating going down a slight incline my foot was off the gas pedal. As i applied the brake pedal the car shifted but had accelerated as though i had pushed on the gas pedal. I had to forcefully apply the brakes even harder to keep from hitting the car in from of me. I have noticed this on other occasions as well but this time was different as there was someone in front of me. It is as though when the car shifts from 7th to 5th and also from 5th to 3rd the car lunges forwards. I have also notices the car will pull itself up a hill without applying the gas pedal when approaching a stop sign at the top of the hill. I am concerned i may inadvertently rear end another vehicle with this issue. *js |
