| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 1st time it happened i was going about 45 mph and as i was accelerating to pass, the car just kept accelerating by it self, i then began to tap the gas pedal with my foot and as i got closer to the vehicle in front of me i had to brake and put the vehicle in neutral,while in neutral the vehicle idle returned to normal. i then went home and at this point believing it was possibly being caused by the floor mat i removed same. the 2nd time i had just made a right turn and gave it a little gas when the vehicle began to accelerate on its own, as i applied the brake the vehicle did a 180. while i holding the brake down the rear wheels began to spin, i was then able to put the vehicle into neutral and turn it off. when restarted it was back to normal. i then took it to a ford dealer the next day, they however were unable to duplicate the problem during the two days they had it, thus no repairs were done , i was told to come back if it happens again, i was also told by the dealer that they contacted ford and that they had no other complaints like this. i then contacted ford motor co. and was told there was nothing that they can do, and when asked if they could replace any parts that could cause this problem due to the extreme danger of this problem they refused. note my vehicle only has 5700 miles on it. *nm |
