Consumer Description

I WAS PULLING UP SLOWLY BEHIND TWO CARS AT A RED LIGHT WHEN MY ENGINE ACCELERATED WITH MY FOOT FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE. MY CAR BEGAN TO INCH FORWARD TOWARD THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND THE ACCELERATION CONTINUED. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND ONCE AGAIN THE ACCELERATION CONTINUED. I THEN TURNED THE KEY OFF AND THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN WITH MY CAR ENDING UP A FOOT AWAY FROM A CAR WITH A WOMAN AND TWO CHILDREN IN IT. I WENT ONLINE AND FOUND OTHER CASES OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHER PEOPLE WITH 2011 FORD FUSIONS. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME WITH THIS CAR. I WAS ON A BUSY FOUR LANE HIGHWAY BOTH TIMES.
