Please list the year of your car, the apprx. dates, miles and conditions when it occurred, # of times it occurred, and specific repairs the dealership attempted to correct the problem and if the dealership was ever actually able to pin point the cause. Please indicate if you had any malfunction or any other warning lights come on. Also list if your car has been modified in any way.

You will receive a pm from me shortly after you post.

Thank you.

I know CTE 430, Hook, RFlow306 and some others I can't remember, have reported this problem in another threads, but the more info you can provide the better. I also see some of you prefer sending me a pm vs posting here, that's fine too.

Happened to me a very, very long time ago. Was at night when I was driving down wilshire in LA. I came to a stop at a light and right when I stopped, the car's rpm just went up and the car lunged. Thankfully no one was in front of me and I slammed on the brakes harder...Asked the dealer about it and they had no idea...
