Description of the problem	At approximately 5:45 last night, while changing lanes and accelerating from 35 to 40 mph, my santa fe suddenly floored its own accelerator pedal and would not release. Tried to 'fight it' with the brake pedal but nothing would release the accelerator, including pumping it slightly. The way we got the car to stop was by putting on the parking brake, pushing the brake pedal to the floor and trying to downshift the car in drive (because it would not let us put the car into neutral). When it got slow enough (15 mph or so), we cut the engine and the car screeched to a halt, burning rubber smelling surrounding us. Only then could we put the car into 'park'. Once we restarted the car it did not do the acceleration again. Our dealer is pretending this is not an issue, though a very quick google search shows that this very much is a known issue that they are ignoring. It is my belief that they are waiting for deaths to happen before acting on this issue and fixing it. This is a major safety issue that needs addressing immediately.
