| THAT WAS ON MONDAY 12/31/2012 WHILE TRAFFIC IN FREEWAY WAS VERY CLEAR. I SET CRUISE CONTROL AT 60 MILE/HOUR BUT SUDDENLY THE CAR KEPT INCREASING FASTER MORE THAN 75 MILES. I WAS PANIC AND KEPT STEPPING BRAKE TO REDUCE SPEED. ABOUT ONE MINUTE, THE CAR WAS REDUCED AT SPEED OF 50 MILES/HOUR. I TESTED IT WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL. I DROVE STEADILY ABOUT 60 MILE/HOUR ABOUT 10 MINUTES THAT THE CAR STARTED ACCELERATED BY ITSELF AGAIN AND HIT 75 MILES/HOUR. I KEPT STEPPING BRAKE STEADILY TO REDUCE SPEED UNTIL IT KICKING INTO 50 MILE/HR. THIS CAR IS DEFINITELY DEFECTIVE CAR WITH NUMEROUS ISSUES. ITS DEFROST SYSTEM DOES NOT FUNCTION AT ALL THAT ALMOST KILLED ME ON SEPTEMBER 2012. AGAIN I BROUGHT IT TO DEALER ON 01/02/2013 FOR ACCELERATED ISSUE AND DEFROST SYSTEM BUT HONDA POWER DEALER STILL COULD NOT DETECT IT. I FILED COMPLAINT WITH FTC AND DISTRICT ATTORNEY/PROSECUTE UNIT TO REQUEST TO INVESTIGATE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. I CONTACTED TO HONDA MOTOR TO REQUEST IT TO TAKE THIS CAR BACK AND TERMINATE MY LEASE BUT HONDA MOTOR REFUSED MY REQUEST BECAUSE HONDA MOTOR USED TEST RESULTS FROM POWER HONDA DEALER AND HONDA WORLD DEALER AS HONDA MOTOR 'S DECISION FOUND THAT THERE WERE NOT ANY DEFECTIVE WITH DEFROST SYSTEM AND ACCELERATE FOUND. HONDA MOTOR MADE THIS CAR AND FAILED TO DETECT ITS PROBLEMS THAT IS NO MATTER IT CAN DETECT THIS CAR PROBLEM OR NOT THAT HONDA HAS TO HOLD ACCOUNTABILITY TO LEASE IT TO ME.
