Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: While coming to a stop (twice) the ford ranger engine accelerated suddenly to a point it could not be completely stopped with the brake system. had any traffic been coming i would be a dead man. i did not have my foot on accelerator nor are there any floor mats in this truck to get stuck under the accelerator. i'm scared to death to drive this vehicle and i know that if i bring it to the ford garage that its going to cost tons of money and they are going to say they don't see anything wrong. there is obviously a serious problem with a control mechanism somewhere. this has happened twice. once after driving the vehicle about a mile. the second time (today) after driving for hours. can you please help me out i really am scared to drive this truck. *jb
