Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: While stopped at a red light today (behind another vehicle) my 2002 dodge dakota was rear ended. rather than just being simply pushed forward, the vehicle abruptly and suddenly accelerated while my foot was on the brake!! perhaps the computer reset for acceleration? my cruise control was on, but i was at a complete stop! my 2 yr old daughter was in the car, and luckily no one was hurt. *nm
