2005 Honda Accord VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

I WAS TRYING TO MANEUVER THROUGH A CROWDED GAS STATION AND HAD BACKED UP. WHEN I PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE, IT LURCHED FORWARD AND ACCELERATED. PRESSING THE BRAKES AS HARD AS I COULD HAD NO EFFECT. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP WAS TO HIT SOMETHING (WHICH ENDED UP BEING CARS STOPPED FOR A RED LIGHT, BUT IT COULD EASILY HAVE BEEN A GAS PUMP, PEDESTRIAN OR PERSONAL PROPERTY). MY CAR HAD TO BE TOWED AND IS IN THE BODY SHOP NOW. I WILL HAVE HONDA INVESTIGATE THE ENGINE. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE TRAVELING 75 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. WHEN THE GAS PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED THE VEHICLE FELT LIKE IT AS BRAKING AND ACELERATING AT THE SAME TIME. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER. WHILEPULLED OVER THE CONSUEMR TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF FOR ONE MINUTE, THEN TURNED IT BACK ON. PRIOR TO THE VEHICLE BEING PULLED OVER THE IOL AND ENGINE LIGHTS WERE ON. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED THE LIGHTS WERE OFF. THE CONSUEMR ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE OFF BUT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO PERFOR ERRATICALLY AGIAN. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TRADED IN FOR ANOTHER MODEL. UPDATED 10/25/2006 - *NM

THIS VEHICLE LURCHED TOWARD AND ACCELERATED AND WOULD NOT STOP EVEN WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. WE HAVE PHOTOS SHOWING THE TIRE IMPRINTS ON THE GARAGE FLOOR UP UNTIL IT IMPACTED WITH THE HOUSE. *JB

DEFECT IN COLD START IDLE CONTROL OF THE 2005 HONDA ACCORD 4 CYLINDER ENGINE THAT CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE UNEXPECTEDLY A SECOND OR TWO AFTER YOU REMOVE YOUR FOOT FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL. *AK

2005 HONDA ACCORD EXPERIENCED COLD ENGINE START AND UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION. *MR AT START UP THE ENGINE WOULD RUN AT 1500 RPM. WHEN PLACED IN GEAR WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE RPM WOULD DROP TO 1000. UPON RELEASE OF THE BRAKES, THE VEHICLE WOULD BEGIN TO ROLL AS NORMALLY EXPECTED FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS AND THEN THE RPM WOULD SUDDENLY JUMP TO 1500 AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES IMMEDIATELY TO 10MPH OR LESS. HONDA SUGGESTED THAT THIS WAS NORMAL. *SC *JB
