Description of the problem | The first time this happened at 3000 miles, the second time, it was around 19,300 miles and was a bit more intense. I was sitting at the stop light, with foot on brake, the truck started accelerating to the point,i started going into traffic. I then put it in neutral and tapped on the gas pedal to get it to idle down. Luckily i was able to avoid what could have been deadly. I then took it straight to the dealer, where i was told they could not duplicate the problem, and was told i probably had one foot on the brake and the other on the gas, when i told him i drive with one foot, he said my foot could have slipped from the brake to the gas pedal. Every time he came up with a lame excuse as to what could have happened i let him know he was wrong. Nothing was done and was told if it happens again bring it back in and they will look at it. Needless to say i will be taking it to someone else next time or getting a hold of ford to find a solution. *nm |
