Description of the problem	I have experienced acceleration problems for over a period of 3 months, similar to those listed by other honda owners online. Most recent incident occurred on 11/27/2017 ,10/6/2017,10/9/17 and in other several occasions when operating the vehicle and its inability to perform in a safe matter has greatly troubled me concerning my safety and the safety public. The following occurred on that day, while i was making a left hand turn crossing lanes of traffic and car would not accelerate when the gas pedal was being pushed all the way to the floor, nearly causing an accident. The car also launches forward while in the drive gear or on reverse after it has been parked for several hours. On other occasions , when pulling into or out of the garage/driveway the car clunked and lurched ahead. On other occasions the car has unattended gas control issue, the car also reaches top speeds of over 37 mph without even touching the gas pedal once. This now happens daily, i have taken it to the dealership and they tell me this is a normal function of the car when i know that this is not true. I have owned several cars and i know this is not normal. I no longer feel comfortable driving this car because it is unsafe. I have reached out to the manufacturer and i feel they keep giving me the run ? Around. I have also taken the car to the dealership where i purchased it, but they say there is nothing wrong with it. I have also contacted the manufacturer (american honda) requesting a field engineer have not been able to get any resolution and i? M getting nowhere with them. This car is dangerous to drive i fear for my safety and my families as well as the public safety. I have no other means of transportation and renting a car is not within my budget. I hope that with your help i can get this matter resolved. Thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
