| Description of the problem | I have had two run away full accelerations in this new truck. I accelerated firmly and the accelerator refused to disengage. At over 90 mphm i put the car in neutral, the rpm increased and i shut off the key. Next time in the same drive it happened again and i immediately shut off the key. I will notify my dealer tomorrow. I will not drive in this vehicle again. As an experienced commercial pilot i have been trained how to deal with this issue but the public has no clue what to do. |
