This video clearly shows that the brakes is much more powerful than the accelerator. Tried it myself, even if I keep flooring the accelerator, I could easily stop the vehicle. Unless, if you think the accelerator is the brake, then its a different story.

September 11th, 2011 06:56 PM #212until now, in doubt pa din ako sa sudden acceleration na yan. only in the Philippines (for montero/pajero sport/dakar/ challenger)
search kayo internet heheh Loud and clear yung video... so don't panic dapat. so, what happened dun sa mga nabangga? panic and for insurance claim lang? Also, do not rev the engine then put in drive position right away.

September 11th, 2011 08:20 PM #213Mahirap talaga maghula for now whats is really wrong or if this incidents are just mere drivers fault. Lets just be more observant of our rides if you sense there is something wrong with it, bring it in immediately. Like what mitsu said, we can have it check for free.

September 26th, 2011 06:47 AM #216mga bossing, totoo po itong sudden acceleration kasi mismong kapatid ko na experience yan. less than 100 km pa lng po yung monero sport, 3 days lng po nabili, pag start po at pag apak sa accelerator bigla na lng nag accelerate ng sobra, inapakan po ng kapatid ko yung preno pero d po tumitigil, ibinanga nya po sa concrete na bakod namin, kung hindi diretso po sya sa highway at patay silang mag anak. wasak po ang tagiliran at pasalamat na lng at galos lng at walang namatay sa accidente. itinawag po nya sa dealer at sa check nung mekaniko talagang nag accelerate daw at umabit sa dulo ng rpm. pag dating sa kasa d na pinaharap ang mekaniko at isinisi sa kapatid ko na sya ang mali. pinapirma sya na sa katunayan e sya ang nagkamali at human error ang nangyari. wala ng nagawa ang kapatid ko kasi sabi ng abogado sa amin napakalaking company ng mitsubishi ubos na ang pera namin d pa tpos ang kaso at hinding hindi nila aaminin na engine problem or defect sa makina yan. awang awa ako sa kapatid ko kasi hiniram nya lng yung sasakyan sa kaptid ko kasi ihahatid nya sa school ang mga anak nya. hindi naman po baguhan ang kapatid ko pag dating sa automatic na sasakyan, madami na po syang hinawakan from tricycle, multi cab, kotse, van, 6 wheeler at 10 wheeler na truck dumadaan sa kamay nya. pinag bayad kami ng almost 200,000 para palitan ng bagong unit, dahil kung aayusin daw ng insurance aabutin ng 4 mons at iyung unit din na iyon ang ibibgay. nag down po kami ng malaki e para hindi masyadong malaki ang interest.
hindi ko sinasabing lahat ng monty e may defect minalas lng kami talaga at ibang naaksidente na nakuha namin ang defektong unit. sa mga nag sasabi na dapat inapakan agad ang preno, or dapat shift agad sa neutral or park position o hand break or foot break agad, madaling mag sabi e para sa akin, kung nandun kayo sa pangyayari in 3-4 seconds kaya magagwa nyo iyon? hindi cguro dahil mabibigla kayo sa nangyari. iyon naman e sa aking opinion , may mga kanya kanya tyong opinion, basta mag ingat na lng dahil kami mismo na experience namin at lahat ng nag post dito sa accidente nila hindi yan human error kung hinbi defective unit. base ito sa experience namin. maraming salamat at magdasal lagi tyo sa bawat sasakay sa ating sasakyan at tuwing mag park magpasalamat na walang nangyaring masama hindi lng sa mga monty owners pati na din sa lahat ng may mga sasakyan. maraming salamat.

All of these were automatic transmission vehicles?
In simple words, driver panicked.

My wife and i have the same saying: kung gusto maraming paraan, kung ayaw maraming dahilan.
If indeed its a sudden acceleration issue then they shouldnt have sign anything that is going against there claim. Remember there is also a media to run to in the first place.
Perhaps he is not accustom to a drive by wire accelerator. Though im not closing any doors to this claim of his but it sounded so ridiculous in the first place
