ON DATE OF ACCIDENT, I WAS DRIVING ON 12 MILE APPROACHING INTERSECTION OF ORCHARD LAKE ROAD. I'M COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP, GOING ABOUT 1-2 MPH, WHEN THE ENGINE SURGED. MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE, AND I COULD HEAR AND FEEL MY ENGINE ACCELERATING, AND TO AVOID REAR ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, I TURNED THE WHEEL AND WENT UP THE CURB, AND FINALLY STOPPED WHEN I HIT AN INTERSTATE SIGN. THE EVENT TOOK PLACE IN ABOUT FIVE SECONDS. ON THE MONDAY FOLLOWING THE ACCIDENT, I TOOK MY TRUCK TO JEROME DUNCAN FORD AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED. I ALSO INFORMED THEM THAT ON 2 OCASSIONS MY CAR WOULD NOT START. THE DIAGNOSTIC SHOWED THAT MY PCM NEED TO BE REPLACED. IT COULD NOT BRING UP ANY MISSING CODES FOR THE SURGE OF MY ENGINE. THE PCM CONTROLS THE ENGINE AND IS THE DRIVE TRAIN. I DON'T BELIEVE...

SPEED CONTROL SUDDENLY ACCELERATED FROM 65MPH (WHERE CRUISE CONTROL WAS SET) TO 95 MPH. IT WAS FULL THROTTLE AND INCREASING SPEED WHEN I HIT THE BRAKE AND IT STOPPED ACCELERATING. DEALER SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG AND DOES NOT KNOW WHY IT DID THIS. I'M STILL WORKING WITH THEM TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM BECUASE I NO LONGER TRUST IT. I WAS NOT TOUCHING ANY CONTROLS OR PEDALS WHEN THE CAR BEGAN ACCELERATING.*AK
