Description of the problem | I bought my jeep one month ago. Recently i noticed that engine revs up and accelerates by itself as i am trying to stop. I have to control this by pressing the break a little harder. I am afraid i will rear end another car. I had no idea this problem was so common. Now i wish i hadn't purchased this vehicle. *js |
