Consumer Description

AFTER A COUPLE REPAIRS ON SAME PROBLEM, I WAS DRIVING TO GO SHOPPING WHEN ETC BOLT LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I WAS LETTING OFF GAS TO SLOW DOWN SO I COULD TRY SHUTTING TRUCK OFF TO RESET COMPUTER SO I COULD GET IT TO DEALER. WHEN I LET OFF GAS THE TRUCK WAS ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN SO I HELD BRAKE DOWN AND LET UP ON BRAKE TO INCH FORWARD TO GET ALL THE WAY OFF ROAD WHEN IT ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN LIKE IT WAS FLOORED. I STOPPED AND PUT IT IN PARK. IN PARK THE ENGINE WAS RACING AT 3000 RPM. THIS IS A DANGEROUS FAULTY SYSTEM.I HAD TAKEN IT TO DEALER AND THEY RESET IT SAYING WHEN THEY CALLED FACTORY THEY WERE TOLD TO RESET IT. IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN MAY BE WIRE HARNESS. I HAVE TAKEN TIME TO FILE THESE COMPLAINTS AS I FEEL THIS IS A DEADLY ISSUE. THESE TRUCKS HAVE CHILDREN RIDING IN THEM AND IN OTHER CARS THAT MAY COLLIDE WITH THEM. PLEASE RESEARCH THE WIRELESS DRIVE ON THE DODGE RAM 2011. *TR
