Hello, all. Has anyone experienced sudden acceleration when in reverse gear in their Sedona? My wife drives our '02 Sedona and at least five times in the past year, the car has surged while in reverse. The first time or two, she was open to the possibility that she inadvertently hit the gas. But after that, she was careful to keep her foot on the brake in all reverse situations and it continued to occasionally accelerate without warning.
We're so concerned about this, we've reported the problem to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration. Also, found a defect investigation on the NHTSA.gov site regarding accelerator surging problems reported for '02 Sedonas. However, there's no mention of whether these involve reverse gear. It only happens to us when the vehicle is in reverse.
Any reports of similar occurences would be helpful. In fact, if it has happened to you, I suggest you visit
