Hello, all. Has anyone experienced sudden acceleration when in reverse
gear in their Sedona? My wife drives our '02 Sedona and at least five
times in the past year, the car has surged while in reverse. The first
time or two, she was open to the possibility that she inadvertently hit
the gas. But after that, she was careful to keep her foot on the brake
in all reverse situations and it continued to occasionally accelerate
without warning.

We're so concerned about this, we've reported the problem to the
National Highway Transportation Safety Administration. Also, found a
defect investigation on the NHTSA.gov site regarding accelerator surging
problems reported for '02 Sedonas. However, there's no mention of
whether these involve reverse gear. It only happens to us when the
vehicle is in reverse.

Any reports of similar occurences would be helpful. In fact, if it has
happened to you, I suggest you visit www.nhtsa.gov and fill out a
consumer complaint form online.
