Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)I HAD THE MANUFACTURER'S SAFETY RECALL (RECALL: 13-026 VSA SYSTEM UNEXPECTEDLY ACTIVATES) WORK DONE RECENTLY. APPROXIMATELY A WEEK AFTER I HAD THIS SERVICE DONE, I EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHEN I MADE HARD LEFT TURN. SUDDEN ACCELERATION PERSISTED FOR ABOUT 3 TO 4 SECONDS. I COULD NOT CONTROL THE VEHICLE DURING THAT TIME AND EVENTUALLY IT SUBSIDEED. I AM SUPSECTING THIS HAS SOMETHING TO WITH THE SAFETY RECALL FIX THAT WAS DONE.
