| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Traveling on the freeway the vehicle suddenly accelerated to 80mph and would not slow down it continued for about 15 miles before i put the veh in neutral and turned off the key,(the service dept at the dealer advised me to do that).at that time smoke poured out of the engine and i thought the veh was on fire. i called 911 . i was able to avoid a collision however the policeman asked me to move the car and when i turned on the key it started at full throttle i was afraid so i got out and refused to move the car. when a police officer moved the car it again started at full throttle. they towed it to the dealer, they said there is nothing wrong with it. i am afraid to drive it and i want a different veh or a refund. |
