Consumer Description

ON FEBRUARY I DROVE FROM MY HOME SEVERAL MILES TO A FAST FOOD RESTAURANT TAKING AN INTERSTATE ON THE WAY. I USED MY CRUISE CONTROL ON MY WAY THERE AND JUST PRESSED THE BRAKE TO DISENGAGE IT WHEN I EXITED THE INTERSTATE. I THEN CONTINUED TO THE DRIVE TO THE RESTAURANT WHERE I PULLED INTO A LINE TO THE DRIVE THROUGH WINDOW AS I MOVED THROUGH THE LINE I WOULD APPLY MY BRAKE TO STOP AND AS CARS PULLED FORWARD I JUST LET MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE TO SLOWLY MOVE FORWARD THEN PRESSED THE BRAKE AGAIN TO STOP. I DID THIS SEVERAL TIMES THEN SUDDENLY WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE MY TRUCK SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND RAN INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME BEFORE I COULD STOP IT. THE DRIVER OF THE OTHER VEHICLE AND I WERE NOT INJURED AND DROVE TO THE PARKING LOT TO EXCHANGE INSURANCE INFORMATION. SINCE THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT I RECENTLY CHECKED FOR RECALLS OM MY TRUCK AND FOUND ONE RELATED TO THE CRUISE CONTROL NHTSA # 18V-332 WHICH COULD BE RELATED TO MY ACCIDENT. I HAVE RECENTLY HAD THE RECALL SERVICE DONE JUNE 30, 2018 AT MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER.
