Two problems related to car accelerates on its own have been reported for the 1998 Honda Passport. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
For the past two years, there has occurred approximately ten unintended accelerations in my 1998 Honda Passport. (isuzu) this occurs mainly in a stop and go situation when driving in heavy traffic. The rpm's suddenly shoot up to about 6000, and just as suddenly decrease. The rear wheels spin while I am holding the brake down. On the last occasion, I had it in park and the acceleration occurred again. I have taken it into the isuzu people and Honda people and they could not find the cause, nor correct the problem.
On occasion when we step on the brakes, the car will suddenly accelerate. Tho I have complained numerous times, Honda cannot duplicate therefore will not do anything to resolve it. I am afraid someone is going to get killed with the car. Still have 6 months before lease is up and they won't buy out the lease or take the car back. Its very dangerous and I have witnesses who have seen it happen. Twice we have had accidents with it, twice I've gone through lights, once I hit a sidewalk trying to park because it jumped. I have 3 children and am afraid one of them will be hurt. This is a safety issue I'm concerned about - and its like they don't care or believe me. I didn't know where else to turn.
