Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: While rolling to a stop between traffic signals foot off the gas pedal my vehicle suddenly revved itself up and bolted forward creating a 3 vehicle accident. i hit the brake when i felt the initial surge, but still hit the vehicle in front. seat belts were worn in each vehicle and my airbag didn't deploy. my vehicle has suffered over $4,500 in damage and won't run while it sits at an auto body shop, the nose and bumper are badly damaged. i was told this sounds like "unintentional acceleration" . the vehicle is awaiting the parts for repairs. *jb
