Consumer Description

VEHICLE HAD A SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION EVENT WHICH NEARLY RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS WAS A VERY NERVE RACKING EXPERIENCE AND I HAD DIFFICULTY STOPPING THE VEHICLE (DESPITE APPLYING FULL BRAKES) AS THE RPM CONTINUED TO INCREASE TO APPROX. 5000. ON STOPPING THE VEHICLE I MANAGED TO PLACE IT IN NEUTRAL AND THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO REV EXCESSIVELY. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP WHO CONFIRMED A HIGH REV PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL AND RECOMMENDED A "THROTTLE BODY" REPLACEMENT. *TR
