Consumer Description

I BOUGHT MY 2001 FORD EXPEDITION BRAND NEW. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS TIMES WHEN MY TRUCK HAS SURGED. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE WAITING AT AN INTERSECTION WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. THE TRUCK SURGES AS IF SOMEONE HAS STEPPED ON THE ACCELERATOR. EVEN THE RADIO GET LOUDER. LUCKILY I HAVE ALWAYS HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE FIRMLY. IT HAS EVEN HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TRUCK ACCELERATES WITHOUT MY CHANGING PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL. THANKFULLY I HAVE NEVER HAD AN ACCIDENT. IT IS VERY NERVE RACKING AND DANGEROUS. I AM VERY NERVOUS HAVING MY CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TAKEN MY TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE SAID THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE SINCE THERE IS A GREAT POSSIBILITY OF ACCIDENTS. *NM
