Consumer Description
UNCONTROLLED ACCELERATION AND CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING THE SAME DAY. ENGINE ACCELERATES WITH RPM CLIMBING WITHOUT ANY PRESSURE BEING APPLIED TO THE GAS PEDAL. THE FIX FOR ME IS TO PUT INTO NEUTRAL AND TAP THE GAS PEDAL WHICH GETS THE ENGINE TO BRING THE RPM'S BACK DOWN. THIS HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AND IN GEAR USUALLY AT LESS THAN 50 MPH. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERYDAY FOR A FEW WEEKS. GOING TO BRING IT IN TO BE REPAIRED AT A FORD DEALERSHIP.
