Consumer Description

WHILE PASSING A SLOW MOVING VEHICLE THE THROTTLE STUCK AND ALTHOUGH NO PRESSURE WAS ON THE GAS PEDAL, IT KEPT ACCELERATING. BY HEAVY USE OF THE BRAKE, I WAS ABLE TO RETURN TO TOWN, WHERE I SHUT THE ENGINE DOWN. IT IS STILL LOCKED ON, AS WHEN I START IT, THE RPM'S JUMP TO 4000 IMMEDIATELY. I HAVE CALLED THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND REQUESTED A TOW. THIS WAS FRIGHTENING, AS I HAD MY GRANDSON IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME.
