description: I WAS PULLING IN TO A PARKING SPOT AT 2 MPH OR LESS, AND WHEN I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE TO STOP, THE ENGINE SURGED AND THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD OUT OF MY CONTROL, ACROSS THE CONCRETE BARRIER, OVER A WALKWAY AND INTO THE WALL OF A RESTAURANT, WHERE IT STALLED. I HAD TO RESTART THE CAR TO REVERSE IT AWAY FROM THE CRASH. FORTUNATELY NO-ONE WAS HURT ALTHOUGH THERE WAS CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT OF THE CAR AND THE WALL OF THE RESTAURANT. THIS ALSO HAPPENED IN MARCH 2014. I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT WHEN THE ENGINE ROARED, THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD, AND I CRASHED ACROSS A PATH AND THROUGH A WOODEN FENCE. THE DAMAGE THEN WAS $10K. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP'S COLLISION CENTER, WHICH REPORTED ONLY THAT "NO DEFECTS IN MATERIALS OR FACTORY WORKMANSHIP WERE FOUND." THERE ARE AT LEAST 11 OTHER REPORTS OF THIS PROBLEM FROM OTHER PEOPLE IN THIS STRING, AND IT IS CLEARLY A VERY DANGEROUS FAULT IN THE 2014 HONDA ACCORD WHICH NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED.
