Incident date: Jan 9, 2013
ON JAN. 9, 2013, WHILE I WAS BACKING UP MY MITSUBISHI GALANT 1998 (VIN # [XXX]) IN MY DRIVEWAY, I NOTICED THAT THE CAR STARTED MOVING ON ITS OWN AND I HAD TO KEEP MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. AFTER BACKING UP, WHEN I DROVE FORWARD, MY CAR SEEMED TO BE QUITE JUMPY AND WANTED TO LURCH FORWARDS. AT A TRAFFIC
... LIGHT ABOUT HALF A MILE FROM HOME, WHILE I WAS STOPPED, I NOTICED THAT THE CAR STARTED MOVING FORWARDS. I IMMEDIATELY SLAMMED HARD ON THE BRAKE. THIS WAS EXTREMELY UNUSUAL AND SCARY. LATER WHILE GOING DOWN A HILL, I COULD SENSE THAT THE CAR WAS AGAIN QUITE JUMPY AND WANTED TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. I STOPPED AT A SHOP FOR SOMETHING AND THEN WHEN I GOT BACK TO THE CAR AND TURNED ON THE ENGINE AGAIN, I NOTICED THAT THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT HAD JUST COME ON. I FELT THAT THE CAR WAS NOT SAFE AND HAD IT TOWED TO KLAHANIE CHEVRON IN ISSAQUAH, WA, VERY CLOSE TO MY HOUSE. I WAS LATER INFORMED BY THEM THAT THE ??IDLE CONTROL MOTOR?? FOR MY CAR WAS MALFUNCTIONING AND DUE TO THIS I WAS EXPERIENCING ALL THESE CAR ??JUMPINESS?? ISSUES. THE ??IDLE CONTROL MOTOR?? WAS REPLACED AND NOW THE CAR APPEARS TO BE RUNNING FINE. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MORE THAN UP TO DATE WITH MY CAR MAINTENANCE. THE BEHAVIOR OF THIS CAR IN WHICH THE CAR WAS ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN IS DANGEROUS AND MITSUBISHI ENGINEERS SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS FOR POSSIBLE RECALL\REMEDIATION, SINCE THIS CAN GREATLY ENDANGER THE LIVES OF PEOPLE IN THE CAR AND ANYBODY ELSE SHARING THE ROAD AT THAT TIME. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TRRead more

I STARTED TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR EARLIER IN THE YEAR AND HAD BROUGHT THE CAR TO TWO DIFFERENT LOCATIONS TO SEE IF IT WAS THE BRAKES BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT I THOUGHT IT WAS AT FIRST.

ANOTHER TIME WHEN WE WERE SLOWING FOR A CORNER AT AROUND 5MPH, THE CAR HAD JERKED BACK AND FORTH UNTIL I HAD GAVE IT GAS AND IT WORKED OUT FINE. SOME DAYS THE CAR WAS FINE AND OTHER DAYS THE CAR WOULD ACT UP. SO, WE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE CAR CHECKED OUT AND THEY HAVE SAID THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAS PROBLEMS BUT DIDN'T SAY AS TO WHAT. THEY ASKED FOR THE MAINTENACE RECORDS TO SEE IF THE CAR WAS PROPERLY MAITAINED AND RELATED THAT WE MIGHT HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS,LABOR,ESTIMATE,ECT WHILE THE CAR IS STILL UNDER THE 60 THOUSAND MILE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. WE DID HAVE THE CAR SERVICE AT A JIFFY LUBE NEAR US RATHER THAN GO 35 MILES SOUTH FROM HERE TO DO THE SAME. SO FAR I FEEL THAT I'M BEING TAKEN FOR A RIDE.Read more
