No I didn't. Ask Audi about "unintended acceleration."

There is no such thing. It's pretty much a given that if a car "accelerates on it's own" it's the driver mistaking the pedals.

Many of the complaints are trivial. Many are downright moronic. It would seem they have not been submitted to the site, but gleaned off other sites, which makes my highly suspicious.

Sure, there are owners of MB cars that have had problems. It happens, and it might be happening with a higher frequency with later model cars. However, it is difficult to trust ancedotal evidence that has incorrect sources and for all I know is just plain made up.

The incredibly poor literacy of many of the writers also sets off my "spidey-sense."
