Sudden Acceleration issue with ES330

Aug 09, 2004 3 Replies

Anyone out there having any issues with sudden forward acceleration with any of the new lexus cars. Sounds crazy, but I had a car shoot forward from a speed of less than 5mph to above 20 without hitting the gas pedal? Nick


Sound like an Attorney Phishing....... Unidentended acceleration has NEVEr been proven in any car. Period.

Sudden Acceleration sounds a lot like "sudden lining the pocket of tort attorneys".

CBS 60 Minutes trumped up a case against Audi years ago but I doubt that ruse will work twice. Technology will triumph over chicanery. All they have to do is read out data recorded in the on-board computer and show the throttle was open and the brakes not touched . . . game over!

The tort shysters better stick with cigarettes and asbestos.

known issue. Drive in 4th gear to minimize shifting.
