I HAD TWO EVENTS. ONE WHILE DRIVING AT 20 MPH IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND STRAIGHT LINE DRIVING AND CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. I THREW CAR IN NEUTRAL AND STEPPED ON GAS HARD FOR A SECOND AND CANCELATION STOPPED. THEN FIVE MINUTES LATER, WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN, SAME EXACT EVENT TOOK PLACE. I DID THE SAME THING. I HAD THE BRAKES ON HARD AND NO STOPPING CAR. FIRST TIME CAR HAS DONE THIS AND I AM ONLY DRIVER FOR SIX YEARS. BROUGHT TO ACURA AND THEY SENT A CORPORATE MECHANIC TO CHECK AND SAID THEY FOUND NOTHING. JUST GOT CAR BACK. A LITTLE SCARY.
