| I purchased a new 2006 buick lucerne cxl in 2006. i have numerous times experienced excelleration in my vehicle. i have taken it to a buick dealer and they drove it and say they didn't notice it. i have also talked to a gmc dealer in the last several years and asked it anyone else has had a vehicle that just speeds up on it's own. i am from a very small town in missouri and 3 other people have purchased the same buick lucerne as mine and one of them says he thinks his vehicle may have sped up before, but he thinks he may have let the cruise control on. the first time this vehicle did this to me was on my way to the lake of the ozarks. i come from a small town there is really no where that i can use the cruise control except on larger trips. we have a lot of hills and curves. going to the lake of the ozarks the speed limit is 70. i used the cruise control. i got behind a trailer that was going very slow and traffic was a little busy, so i applied the brakes and when traffic was clear i passed the trailer. i was going to resume the cruise control, but before i even touched the button, my car took off and i was at 93 miles an hour and i hit the brake and it would not stop. i then tapped the brakes several times quickly and it started to slow down. when i got the speed down to 55, i then applied my foot back to the gas pedal and when i did, the gas pedal was not down or stuck, but i could feel a little something in it. this is something you do not feel in it all the time. i tried to figure out what happened and told my husband about it and he said you must has hit something wrong. i said no i'm telling you it did it on it's own. i go to work at 4:00 am in the morning. where i live there is a lot of deer, so i do not drive fast for about 3 miles to work. one morining i was driving on a straight stretch and when i came to about the top of a little hill my car again did the same thing. it just takes off and it catches you off guard. | |||
