At idle and in gear, idle fluctuates rapidly and engines rpm is high enough that the brakes will hardly keep the car stopped. the first time it happened i was at a traffic light and it jumped into the intersection. have to put into neutral to keep from hitting others in the rear. have taken the car to the shop and couldn't find the problem so i took it to general motors and they couldn't find the problem. *ak | |||
