2000 olds Alero, the problem is that the car will surge forward without your foot on the gas pedal. Have taken the car into the service dept. For this and they claim that they can not find the problem. It did this daily when pulling into the garage. It even does it on the road so we keep a foot on the brake. It does not go fast but it does pick up speed on its own. Have you had others complain about this with the 3. 4 six cylinder engine with auto. It does not matter if air cond. Is on or off. Thank you for any information you can provide. This happens once or twice a week for unknown reason.

Car loses all power with little or no warning. Has done this 5 or 6 times while driving on the interstate. I have taken the car into 3 different repair shops, 1 being the dealership they could not find a problem or recreate it while driving.
The car has failed 4 times for the same reason in 14 months all fuel related the car was told to us each time to be fixed . When you buy a new car you assume the car will run without problems for a reasonable period of time we now feel that the car is unsafe to drive because you never know when the car will just shut down on you and you have no control of it thanks olds for the great car that my wife is scared to drive.
Fuel pump failure. Dt.
I have owned the car for 21 months and in that time, I have had 3 gas leaks repaired.
