2010 Jeep GRAND CHEROKEE Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

 Issue ID1244184
 Internal NHTSA #10808783

 Model Year2010

 ComponentVEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Product type codeVEHICLE
 Description of the problemWhile traveling on the express way at a steady speed of 70 mph, without cruise control, the accelerator pedal moved suddenly away from the foot and stayed in the full gas position accelerating the car to well over 80 mph. Attempts to return the pedal to a safe position failed. There was no floor mat interference of any kind and cruise control was not active that day because of excessive truck traffic. Only extraordinary braking slowed the car to allow squeezing between trucks on the right lane and eventually coming to a stop on the free way shoulder. After letting things cool down for a few minutes and restarting the engine, things appeared to have returned to normal and the trip home could be completed without incident. The car was not driven subsequently until a local dealership was able to investigate the event. Nothing was found except the on-board computer displays the code indicating that both the accelerator and brake systems were active at the same time.- at the moment we are at our second dealership and are under advisement from chrysler to continue the investigation. However nothing different has been determined so far. We are unwilling to use the car due to the imminent threat of a recurrence of the unknown phenomenon.
