Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: While pulling into my driveway, i was braking to park while the automatic transmission was still in drive. suddenly, the engine started to rev on its own, while my foot was on the brake. the tachometer started reading in the danger zone, and the engine was revving out of control. white smoke started to come out from under the hood. i was able to put the car into park and turn off the engine. it was quite a frightening experience.
