The car started accelerating on its own, from about 35 mph (where i pulled my foot off the accelerator pad to "hold" the speed but not continue accelerating) up to 55 mph--this happened very quickly, in a smattering of seconds.

I have brought the car to the dealer several times over the years, most recently this year 2014. *tr
