#745309May 14, 2001
VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
AFTER BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE, THE VEHICLE AUTO-ACCELERATED WHEN THE TRANSMISSION SELECTOR WAS PLACED INTO THE 'DRIVE' POSITION. TO AVOID A HEAD ON COLLISION (THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED TO A HIGH RATE OF SPEED) THE STEERING WHEEL WAS TURNED TOWARD THE LEFT. THE RESULT WAS THE STRIKING OF THE BUMPER AREA OF THREE PARKED VEHICLES, ONE OF WHICH SUFFERED SOME REAR FENDER DAMAGE. DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE WAS SEVERE; HOWEVER, THE AIR BAG FAILED TO ACTIVATE. THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST INCIDENT OF 'AUTO-ACCELERATION'. IT OCCURED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS NEW. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AND REMAINED AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR APPROXIMATELY ONE-WEEK, BUT NO FAULT WAS FOUND. *AKMORE RECENTLY, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO INCRESE IN SPEED ALTHOUGH NO FORCE WAS APPLIED TO THE ACCELERATOR. IN THESE CASES, THERE WAS SUFFICIENT TIME SO NO DAMAGE WAS DONE.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
KEYLESS ENTRY MALFUNCTIONS INTERMITTENTLY AND HAS DONE SO SINCE DELIVERY OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN MALFUNCTIONING THE KEYLESS ENTRY DOES NOT RESPOND AS IT SHOULD TO THE REMOTE UNIT(S) AND ONE NEEDS TO PRESS THE REMOTE UNIT SEVERAL TO MANY TIMES BEFORE DOOR WILL UNLOCK / LOCK OR PANIC ALARM SOUND. POSITION OR DISTANCE IN RELATION TO THE VEHICLE DOES NOT SEEM TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, NOR DOES WEATHER CONDITIONS, LOCATION WHERE PARKED OR IF VEHICLE IS COLD OR WARM. ALL OCCURRED OUTDOORS. IN BETWEEN MALFUNCTIONS, IT WORKS FINE. I FEEL NOT HAVING A RELIABLE ENTRY / PANIC ALARM SYSTEM IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. THE DEALER HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO CONFIRM THE INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. NOTE: THE FAILURE DATES AND MILEAGES ARE VARIOUS. THE NUMBER OF FAILURES ARE MORE THAN 50. *AK
