Description of the problem	I was on the high way i changed lanes and when i did i needed to accelerate to change lanes. After changing lanes i had to hit the breaks to slow down, the break seemed to act like a gas pedal. The car would not slow down the breaks would not slow the car it accelerated to 80mph. I was not hitting the accelerator by mistake. There was nothing stuck under the pedals. I believe it was the throttle positioning sensor,tps. I looked this up on the internet there are many instances of this happening with the same make and model vehicle. This is a serious safety hazard i thought me and my unborn child were going to die. I have yet to contact my dealership however as far as i am aware there are no recalls on this vehicle. And there should be! The car has 104800 miles roughly. The car accelerated to 80 miles per hour on its own prior to that i was going about 55 miles per hour. It asked for this information on the next part of this form however it was not allowing me to type it.
