Engine cradle is totally broken in half. the car is unsafe to drive & it is all i have. only 120,000 miles on it, was this a defect on your part? i need help. this repair includes removing engine, transmission, from car to access engine cradle. the cost is over $1500.00 dollars. i truly thought i was buying a quality car! i have no idea how long i have been driving this highly unsafe vehicle of yours!! it also lurches forward at times when i press on the brake. i'm making payments on it & now must borrow again to repair this car. please get back to me on this asap.
Going 5 mph in parking lot, coasting to a stop at end of aisle with foot off throttle pedal. put foot on brake and the engine revved to high speed. barely held car with brake. shut off ignition. car restarted fine. this was the second time in a week it had happened. previous incident was on a residential street coming to a stop at a stop sign. acura dealer and acura techline say the problem can't happen because the throttle control is a hard cable, no electronics involved.
Erratic/raised engine idle caused by worn idle air control valve creates a condition where engine idle is suddenly higher than 2000rpm in gear which results/resulted in unintended acceleration (vehicle speeds up with no accelerator pedal input) and the engine is more powerful than the braking system (with vehicle in drive gear, brake pedal to the floor, vehicle will still move forward.) condition happens to my vehicle when engine is normal operating temperature, with warm to hot ambient temperatures, on any road condition.
