I was pulling out of parking spot in reverse in a crowded movie theater parking lot when my 2011 honda cr-v accelerated at full speed into the cement pole behind me. Confused, I put the car in 'drive' to pull myself away from the pole, when the car once again accelerated at full speed forward toward the spot I was original in hitting and continually pushing a parked mini-van, which in turn pushed and kept pushing the parked car next to it. In an attempt to stop the car, I put the car in reverse and once again went in reverse, crashing into the same cement pole. Despite the fact that I bore down on the brakes repeatedly, the car did not stop until I put the car in 'park". Immediately thereafter, I turned the car off. This all occurred in seconds and was terrifying...I had no control of the vehicle. Witnesses in the movie theater parking lot were stopped in their tracks hearing the loud roar of the engine.

I was driving out of a parking lot of an outdoor shopping mall, suddenly the car did not move at all. I shifted to l1 to see how it would react. No movement. Shifted to l2, still the car did not budge at all. Finally, I shifted to r, then, it moved backward. I put the shift into d, and then o.k. I remember, in the past, the car hesitated to start out after a stop at intersections. I contacted the local dealer. They say they cannot do much because the problem has to be replicated to diagnose it. I told them, I or any one could replicate the problem. Anyway, I told them I am bringing in my car tomorrow. But I am afraid if the same problem happens on the busy street on my way to the dealer. I will appreciate to let me know if any one had experienced the problem. If no one has reported so far, I would like this problem registered on your data base. Thank you.
