I WAS GOING NORTH ON COLLIER AVENUE IN NAPLES, FLORIDA STOPPED AT THE INTERSECTION WITH DAVIS AVENUE AT 3 PM WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHEN THERE WAS UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. I JAMMED DOWN HARD ON THE BRAKE AND SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL. THE MOTOR REVED UP HARD FOR A SHORT TIME, THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, THE CARS AHEAD PULLED FORWARD, I SHIFTED INTO DRIVE, TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, AND THE CAR AND ACCELERATOR RETURNED TO NORMAL AND I PROCEEDED FORWARD. EVERYTHING RETURNED TO NORMAL. I AM FAMILIAR WITH UNINTENDED ACCELERATION BECAUSE I EXPERIENCED IT PREVIOUSLY IN MY 1995 (NOT POSITIVE OF EXACT YEAR) AUDI.

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the full 2014 Lincoln Mks verdict →
