Description of the problem	I am driving the jeep is on the highway, doing 60 mph one week after i had bought the jeep in may 2016 and it automatically started going faster on it's own, with the rpm indicator going clockwise. It would not slow down on its own so i had to drive to the access road and put emergency brake on. Once i was able to start the vehicle again it reset itself and performed normally. This has occurred 5 times since i have owned it, including july 25, 2018 when it happened again last week. Last year i had it checked and was told a sensor light was out, so they "fixed" it. It is still happening. The dashboard indicators are constantly flashing. They told me they reset them also. It is still occurring, also
