Consumer Description

AS I'M DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY 2007 FORD TAURUS HAS STARTED TO ACCELERATE ON IT'S OWN. ON JULY 9 THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED AND I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT HITTING A TREE. WHEN I START MY CAR IT WILL REV UP TO 2 RPM AND I HAVE TO PUSH THE GAS TO BRING IT BACK DOWN. MY MECHANIC HAS CHANGED THE O2 SENSOR AND SEVERAL OTHER THINGS. I BELIEVE THIS ISSUE IS FAIRLY COMMON BUT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I HAVE TO RIDE MY BREAKS TO EVEN STAY STATIONARY AT A STOP LIGHT BECAUSE MY CAR WILL ACCELERATE UP TO 20 MPH IN A MATTER OF THIRTY SECONDS. I GOT LUCKY THAT MY CHILDREN WEREN'T WITH ME AT THE TIME I CRASHED I WAS ALSO LUCKY THAT I HAVEN'T READ ENDED ANYONE. NOW I AM SITTING WITH A VERY UNSAFE CARE AND STUCK PLEASE HELP ME FIX THE ISSUE.
