    WITH THE LAST INCIDENT BEING 2 DAYS AGO, I FINALLY HAD A CHANCE TO TAKE MY CAR TO THE SHOP TODAY. THEY SAID THEY COULD FIND NO PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD ABOUT 5 INCIDENTS OVER THE LAST 4 YEARS OF UNINTENDED ACCELERATION WHEN MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE. ONE TIME RECENTLY IT HAPPENED ON A FLAT ROAD AS I WAS APPROACHING A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO TURN INTO THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC, CUTTING SOME ONE OFF BUT NO COLLISION TOOK PLACE. TWO DAYS AGO IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHEN MY CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN STOPPED ON A HILL FACING DOWN THE HILL. WHEN I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE IT DID NOT BRAKE THE CAR, INSTEAD I COULD HEAR THE ENGINE REV UP AND PULL FORWARD. THIS IS HOW IT HAPPENED ALSO ON THE PREVIOUS 3 TIMES. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW. I AM SINGLE AND DISABLED AND JUST FINISHED PAYING OFF THIS CAR. I DON'T WANT TO SELL THE CAR AND HAVE SOMEONE DIE BECAUSE I SOLD IT TO THEM. I CERTAINLY DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO JUST GO OUT AND BUY A NEW CAR BUT I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THIS CAR NOW. PLEASE ADVISE ME AS TO WHAT COURSE I SHOULD TAKE. THANK YOU. *TR
