Description of the problem	While at a stoplight in small city traffic in connellsville, pa, on 31dec2008, i decided to see how my enterprise rental vehicle, a 2008 dodge grandcaravan, would accelerate. Pulling away from the light, i floored the pedal and got up to about 45 mph, then let up. No reduction in acceleration occurred. I took my foot from the pedal and the engine continued to race. I was still gathering speed, so i pushed the brake pedal with lots of gusto. The vehicle's brakes then worked against the engine for perhaps a quarter mile. The vehicle speed was reduced to about 20 mph, but when i did a test lift off the brake pedal, the vehicle once again started to accelerate. Back on the brake, i swerved into a large, empty parking lot. I tried neutral and the engine then took off wildly, so i switched off the ignition. Pausing a few seconds, i restarted the vehicle and found everything back to normal, except that the esp warning light that had come on with my intense braking was still on. I drove a few minutes and the light went off. I then returned the vehicle to the enterprise agency, where i shared my experience with the manager.
