VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE ACCELERATING ON TO A HIGHWAY, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL FELT AS THOUGH IT WAS PULLED TO THE FLOOR AND THE CAR BEGAN ACCELERATING OUT OF CONTROL. I WAS IN 5TH GEAR AND PUT THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL, BUT IT KEPT ACCELERATING. I FINALLY TURNED THE IGNITION OFF [KEY] AND COASTED TO THE SHOULDER. TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD NO PROBLEM, THAT THEY WERE 99% SURE THE CAR MAT MUST HAVE GOTTEN STUCK UNDER THE PEDAL. I DON'T THINK SO.

HONDA WILL REPAIR OR REPLACE ANY HONDA SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY THAT FAILS TO FUNCTION PROPERLY DURING NORMAL USE. THIS INCLUDES ALL LABOR AND PARTS." I FEEL LIKE I SHOULDN'T OF BEEN CHARGED ACCORDING TO THEIR WARRANTY. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF I AM ENTITLED TO A REIMBURSMENT AS I HAVE ALREADY PAID FOR THE REPAIRS TO THE SAFTEY SEAT BELTS. *AK
