Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Engine surge causes vehicle to lurch. first instance was on march 10th 2006. the vehicle was running, i entered the vehicle put it into reverse and the tachometer jumped to almost 2000 rpms and vehicle lurched backwards then stopped. the second instance was on march 28th 2006 my wife was entering a parking space facing a store and reported stepping on the brake and the vehicle lurched forward jumping the concrete parking block with all 4 wheels, hitting the building then stopping. i believe this really is a problem as i now realize that during the first incident i needed to have the brake depressed to move the gear lever from park to reverse. maybe related to nhtsa odi id#s 10112496,10125643, 10141521, and 10152704. *jb
