NHTSA Complaint #11569710 — 2022 FORD MUSTANG MACH E

I have had 14 incidents over two years where this vehicle suddenly, rapidly accelerates from slow speed, usually less than 15 mph, and six of those incidents had a near collision. Most of the incidents happen in a parking lot or drive-thru and require immediate fast braking to avoid collision. This sudden, unexpected acceleration has been widely discussed on the Mach-E Forum and there is general agreement the cause is inadvertent engaging cruise control by accidentally hitting an overly sensitive button on the steering wheel when the hands are in the 9 to 3 position. I have reviewed all related threads on the forum and counted 36 different owners who have experienced this same problem, most reporting near collisions and serious concerns for safety. Some posters have described possible remedies.
