Description of the problem | About a month ago i was driving along and the radio got really loud for no reason for 10 seconds and then subsided. I didn't think much of this at the time, but after wednesday, i now believe it must have been related somehow. I was sitting off-road waiting for traffic to pass by in order to turn-around and begin driving south. I had just turned on the car and turned the steering wheel in order to make my approximate 175 degree turn. My foot was on the brake and the car ready to move. All of a sudden the engine revved up and the car tried lurching forward as though someone's foot was on the accelerator. I had to reassert my foot pressure on the brake in order to keep the car from moving. My foot had not left the brake, there was no person or thing trying to accelerate the car, it just occurred. The news about faulty accelerators entered my mind. There has not been any further incident at this time. |
