Vehicle Speed Control
11/10/2001
WHEN APPLYING BRAKES TO STOP VEHICLE SURGED FORWARD. IMMEDIATELY PLACED SHIFT IN NEUTRAL WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, ENGINE WITH NO LOAD RACED TO 5000 RPM AND WAS CLIMBING HIGHER UNTIL THE IGNITION WAS TURNED TO OFF. RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND IT IMMEDIATELY RACED TO 5000 RPM. THIS SEQUENCE OCCURRED 5 TIMES BEFORE THE ENGINE FINALLY RESET TO A NORMAL RPM START AND COULD BE DRIVEN HOME. AUTO HAS EXPERENCED THIS PROBLEM FOR 2 YEARS BUT CAN NOT BE DUPLICATED IN THE SHOP. THE RUGS WERE REMOVED AND THE CRUISE CONTROL DISCONNECTED, AND THE COMPUTER CHANGED BUT THE PROBLEM WAS NEVER CORRECTED BY 3 SEPARATE SHOPS WHO COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN THEIR POSSESION. OWNER FEELS THE VEHICLE IS TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE ALTHOUGH IT IS IN PERFECT CONDITION OTHERWISE. *AK

CONSUMERS UNION RECOMMENDED I CONTACT YOU. CAM DRIVE BELT MANUFACTURED BY THE KELLY-SPRINGFIELD DIVSION OF GOODYEAR TIRE AND RUBBER, SEPARATED INTO SHREDS AFTER 49,800 MILES. LOCAL DEALER REPLACED BELT FREE OF CHARGE, BUT CLAIMED WARRANTY GOOD FOR ONLY 50,000 MILES. OWNER'S MANUAL RECOMMENDS CHANGING EVERY 60,000 MILES. BREAKAGE CAUSED WARPED VALVES AND GOUGED PISTONS. SUBMITTED DAMAGE CLAIM, #11153, TO GOODYEAR IN THE AMOUNT OF $2,830.70. GOODYEAR AFTER ANALYZING A COUPLE STRANDS, CLAIMED THE BELT WAS NOT AT FAULT. MACHANIC, ASE CERTIFIED, CAN NOT FIND PHYSICAL EVIDENCE OF ANY OTHER PART BEING AT FAULT. I WOULD LIKE REIMBURSEMENT FOR DAMAGE TO VEHICLE, AND CLARIFICATION AS TO WHY A COMPANY WOULD RATE A REPLACEMENT PRODUCT FOR FEWER MILES THAN RECOMMENDED IN THE AUTOMOBILE OWNER'S MANUAL, AND NOT NOTIFY THE REPAIR SHOP OR OWNER. I AM LUCKY BREAKAGE DID NOT OCCURRED IN HEAVY TRAFFIC! FOR MORE INFORMATION PLEASE CONTACT EITHER MYSELF, OR ENDY AUTO REPAIR, 1706 S. IOWA AVE, JOPL...
