Consumer Description

THE ACCELERATOR IS STICKING. WHEN YOU HIT THE PEDAL TO SPEED UP, IT STICKS SOMETIMES. IT WILL NOT DISENGAGE UNLESS YOU HOLD THE BRAKES AT THE SAME TIME YOU TAP THE GAS PEDAL. IT HAS TO BE PUT IN PARK SOMETIMES TO DISENGAGE. THIS IS THE SECOND 05 TAURUS I'VE HAD AND THE FIRST ONE DID THE SAME EXACT THING. WE JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR A USPS MAIL ROUTE. IT IS NOT SAFE TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN ON THE ROUTE. IT HAS OVER 216000 MILES ON IT. THE FIRST TAURUS HAD THIS PROBLEM WELL BEFORE THE 200,000 MARK. I WILL HAVE TO PAY TO GET IT FIXED, BUT CONSIDERING BOTH OF MY TAURUSES DID THE SAME EXACT THING, IT COULD BE A PROBLEM.
