The spring which brings the gas pedal back up after you push it, fell off it's mounting. So when you push the gas, the gas stays pushed. I went to the dealer and they reinstalled the same spring. But i feel this part should be mounted more securely. I found out about the problem while my car was in "park" in my driveway. Had it happened when i was driving, i could have been hurt or killed. Is this a pattern, are dealerships required to report this. I do not believe there was a recall pertaining to this problem on this vehicle. - thank you sameh 407-376-6050

When i was pulling up to the car in front of me at a light, having just exited a highway, my car accelerated instead of slowing to a stop. I was able to pull into the next lane over to avoid hitting the car in front of me. Luckily there were no cars coming or in that lane already. I was not hurt nor did any damage. This is one of three instances of unintended aceleration. The other two were while parking. No injury or damage has occurred with any of the incidences.

Door locks will unlock half way unable to exit car. Door locks will click open and close independently while driving and when parked, using key remote to lock car and while walking away i hear car locks click. I walk back to car to find all doors unlocked? Rear hatch handle assembly very flimsy. Is not strong enough to pull door open. Mine came off in my hand squeezing the release then pulling it open! Cannot open from outside without it or in an emergency. Also without the handle there is no illumination of the license plate which gets you pulled over and gets you a ticket!
