Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Thursday 5/11/06 idle upon start up goes to 2000 rpm, and stays there for approximately 1-1 1/2 minutes, before slowing dropping down to around 1500 rpm. it seemed to really be straining against the brake, when i put it into drive, again, not the feel it had when it was brand new. friday 5/12/06 it not only had the high idle, but while driving at highway speeds seemed to have a random surge while driving. couldn't detect a pattern to it, whether on incline, decline, or flat roadway. upon arriving at work, i placed the transmission into park, and idle was approximately 750 rpm (by dash tach) when suddenly it raced up to 1500 rpm, stay there for about 30 - 45 seconds, then returned to 750 rpm. this surge situation certainly presents a possible safety problem, if the surge was to override the brake pressure and lurch forward at stop, or in bumper to bumper traffic. *jb
