Consumer Description

ON THREE OCCASIONS, MY 2000 LINCOLN LS (V6) HAD A SUDDEN ACCELERATION. THE FIRST TWO INCIDENTS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY. THE LAST INCIDENT WAS ON 03-29-04 IN THE CITY LIMIT. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET DOING ABOUT 30 MPH WHEN THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TURNED RED AND THE CARS IN FRONT OF ME CAME TO A STOP. WHEN I BEGAN TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR, I FELT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL GO DOWNWARD. THE CAR BEGAN TO INCREASE SPEED WITHOUT MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR. I PLACED MY FOOT FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE PEDAL BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I TRIED PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN AS MUCH AS I COULD BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I SHIFT THE GEAR INTO PARK AND THEN THE CAR STOPPED. *AK
