problem #1

2009Oct 14

Civic Hybrid Hybrid 1.2L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 195,000 miles

This car is dangerous. The car automatically accelerates during high speed cruising.
I was cruising around 75 miles per Hr on the freeway. Next thing I knew the accelerator started pressing on to the floor by itself. I can feel the pedal leaving my right foot and can see the speed increasing. I went as high as 90 Mi The only solution I have is stepping on the brake and shifting to low gears. My best guess is the cruise control is acting weird even though it's off.
