2001 Acura TL Speed Control & Cruise Problems

I DROVE MY CAR OUT THE GARAGE INTO THE COMMON ALLEY IN REVERSE, ONCE OUT THE GARAGE. WHEN I WAS OUT OF GARAGE ATTEMPTED TO CLOSE THE GARAGE DOOR WITH THE GENIE , AND THE GARAGE DOOR WOULDN'T CLOSE . I DROVE THE CAR FURTHER AWAY FROM THE GARAGE/BUILDING IN REVERSE TO DETERMINE , WHETHER THE GENIE WOULD OPERATE FROM ANOTHER POSITION , NEXT THING I KNEW THE CAR WAS ACCELERATING UNCONTROLLABLY, BETWEEN 20 - 25 MILES PER HOUR IN REVERSE NEXT TO OUR BUILDING'S GARAGES . MY CAR ONLY STOPPED BECAUSE I SLAMMED INTO MY NEIGHBOR'S GARAGE , WHICH WAS 4 DOORS DOWN FROM MY OWN GARAGE . MY ACCELERATOR WAS ESSENTIALLY, FROZEN...A RUNAWAY ACCELERATOR. SIMILIAR INSTANCES WHILE I WAS IN THE DRIVE MODE , BUT JUST FOR QUITE , SHORT, TIMES.

DT: DRIVING ALONG THE HIGHWAY, CONSUMER WENT TO CHANGE LANES, AND WHEN TAPPING THE BRAKE, THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD, AND PICKED UP ACCELERATION, WITH THE ACCELERATOR NOT BEING TOUCHED. THE ABS SYSTEM WAS NOT WORKING. THE BRAKES REGAINED WORKING CONTROL AFTER ABOUT 30 SECONDS, WHICH CAUSED THE CONSUMER TO FISHTAIL AND TRY NOT TO HAVE A HEAD-ON COLLISION. THE CAR TURNED 180 DEGREES AROUND WITH NO BRAKE POWER. CONSUMER WAS DRIVING AT 60 MPH, WHEN THIS HAPPENED.... *TT

ACCELERATOR CABLE/WIRE SNAPPED IN HALF WITHOUT WARNING.. THE GAS PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR. LUCKILY, I WAS NOT ON THE FREEWAY DOING 70MPH SINCE THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE AFTER THE CABLE BROKE. THE PART WAS REPLACED, HOWEVER, THE CAR ONLY HAD 25,011 MILES ON IT. THE CAR IS ONLY 2001 ACURA WHICH HAS BEEN MAINTAINED WITH SAFETY MAINTENANCE CHECKS EVERY 7,500 MILES. HOWEVER, THERE IS NO CHECK ON THE AUTOMOTIVE CHECK LIST FOR ACCELERATOR CABLE. AS A MATTER OF FACT, THIS IS NOT SUPPOSE TO HAPPEN AT ALL. THE ACURA DEALER DID NOT EVEN CARRY THE PART IN THEIR STOCK. HOW COULD THIS FREAKY BREAKAGE OCCUR? WHY WAS THE ACCELERATOR FAULTY?*AK

WHEN VEHICLE WAS PLACED IN REVERSE AND FOOT WAS ON BRAKE VEHICLE ACCELERATED. *AK

CONSUMER WAS BARELY GOING 2MPH IN A DRIVEWAY ALMOST STOPPED AND VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. CONSUMER WAS PRATICALLY STANDING ON BRAKES, USING THE LEFT FOOT AND TRYING TO STOP THE VEHICLE. BEFORE VEHICLE STOPPED ACCELERATING IT DEMOLISHED A BRICK PUMP HOUSE, A CONCRETE BIRD BATH, AND AND 2 TREES. NO CONTACT HAS BEEN MADE WITH DEALER. VEHICLE HAS OVER $9800 WORTH OF DAMAGES.*AK *SLC

WHEN STOPPED WITH FOOT ON BRAKE CAR ACCELERATES. ALSO IF CAR IS IN REVERSE, AND FOOT IS ON BRAKE, CAR ACCELERATES IN REVERSE. THIS BEHAVIOR IS REPRODUCIBLE. *AK
