NHTSA complaint: 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA — ENGINE
I WAS STARTING TO BACK OUT OF A DIAGONAL PARKING SPACE AND SUDDENLY THE CAR RAPIDLY ACCELERATED AND BACKED ACROSS TWO LANES OF DOWNTOWN BUSINESS TRAFFIC COLLIDING WITH A VEHICLE PARKED DIAGONALLY ACROSS THE STREET. WHEN MY VEHICLE STARTED ACCELERATING I STOMPED ON MY BRAKE BUT THE CAR DID NOT STOP UNTIL IT HIT THE OTHER VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THIS IS AN INCIDENT OF "UNINTENDED LOW-SPEED SURGING" AS REPORTED ON THE INTERNET AND UNDER NHTSA ACTION NUMBER DP14003. *JS
