TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 KIA SEDONA. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATED, IT EXPERIENCED UNINTENDED ACCELERATION AFTER THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A TREE.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE VERY DIM... THE RESON THAT THEY WERE DIM WAS THE SMALL YELLOW FRONT MARKER LIGHT (194 BULB) HAD BURNED OUT.. THE VEHICLE HAD VERY LIMITED LIGHTING WHEN ON LOW BEAM... THERE IS NO INDICATION THAT ANY PROBLEM EXSITS OTHER THAN THE DIM BULBS... I BELIEVE THAT THE GROUNDING CURCUIT FOR THE LOW BEAMS IS FEED THRU THE SIDE MARKER BULBS... THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE HAD NO IDEA OF HOW LONG THE LIGHTS HAD BEEN DIM...

I WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME SLAMMED ON THEIR BRAKES, THERE WAS MORE THAN A CAR LENGTH BETWEEN US, BUT WHEN I STEPPED ON BRAKES THE CAR ACCELERATED RATHER THAN STOPPED. I NOTICED OTHER TIMES THE CAR WOULDN'T STOP WHEN STEPPED ON THE BRAKES HARD. SINCE THEN I'M VERY CAUTIOUS ABOUT DRIVING IN BAD WEATHER, OR TOO CLOSE. BE CAREFUL OF PRESSING ON THE BRAKES TOO HARD!! *TR

WAS ON HIGHWAY HEADING INTO CONSTRUCTION ZONE , TAPPED BRAKES TO DISENGAGE CRUISE CONTROL, CC DID NOT DISENGAGE. HEAVILY PRESSED BRAKES, CC WOULD NOT DISENGAGE. VEHICLE IS ACTUALLY ACCELERATING EVERY TIME I STEP ON BRAKE. ABS/ESC LIGHTS COME ON. ULTIMATELY ABLE TO DISENGAGE CC ON THE COLUMN BUT NOT BEFORE ACCELERATING TO 80+MPH HEADING INTO WALL OF TRAFFIC MERGING FROM THREE TO ONE LANES AND SLOWING TO 45MPH FOR CONSTRUCTION ZONE. 20 MILES LATER I PULL INTO REST AREA HOPING TO CLEAR ERROR LIGHTS; TURNED CAR OFF AND BACK ON - COULDN'T GET VAN OUT OF PARK. AFTER ABOUT 100+ RESTARTS FINALLY ABLE TO GET VAN INTO DRIVE. LIMPED HOME, FLATBEDDED TO DEALERSHIP NEXT MORNING. STILL NO ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF ISSUE FROM SERVICE DEPARTMENT 24 HOURS LATER. *TR
