Honda Civic Vehicle Speed Control Safety Report | Sept 04, 2011
Reported on Sept 04, 2011
| AS I WAS FOLLOWING A ROW OF CARS INTO A DRIVEWAY OF A SHOPPING AREA, I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE JUST TO ROLL A FEW INCHES SINCE TRAFFIC WAS BUMPER TO BUMPER. UNEXPECTEDLY MY CAR LUNGED FORWARD ON TO THE DRIVEWAY HITTING THE TRUCK TO MY RIGHT AND A CAR TO MY LEFT THAT WAS EXITING THE DRIVEWAY. BEFORE I COULD MAKE SENSE OF WHAT HAPPENED, I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. I HAD THE CAR INSPECTED BY THE HONDA DEALER BEFORE IT WENT TO THE REPAIR SHOP. HONDA RAN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST ON THE CAR AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED MY CAR TO ACCELERATE IN SUCH A MANNER. TOTAL COST OF REPAIRS $7800. *TR | |
