Reported on June 15, 2012
| I WAS STOPPED FOR A RED LIGHT AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT ON HIGHWAY 20 IN NICEVILLE, FL. I HAD MY RIGHT FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHEN I FELT THE VEHICLE ATTEMPT TO SURGE FORWARD AND I COULD HEARD THE ENGINE REV. I LOOKED AT THE TACHOMETER AND NOTICED THE ENGINE WAS AT 2000 RPM INSTEAD OF THE NORMAL IDLE OF APPROX 800 RPM. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I DROVE AWAY AND THE VEHICLE DROVE NORMALLY. I DID NOT HAVE ANOTHER INCIDENT DRIVING HOME EVEN WHEN I STOPPED AT OTHER TRAFFIC LIGHTS. THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURRENCE OF THIS UN-COMMANDED ACCELERATION - THE OTHER TOOK PLACE LAST YEAR. *JB | |
