Description of the problem	I was driving at 65 miles an hour on interstate and the vehicle decelerated and then accelerated and continued to accelerate. The cruise control was not on at the time. I tried to brake but the vehicle continued to try to accelerate as i depressed the brake petal. The only way to stop this was to physically put the vehicle in neutral. After sitting for a period of time multiple alarms were displayed. I was able to drive again once the vehicle was in alarm mode and the anti lock braking system had disabled itself. I am an experience driver. I am afraid that another person may have panicked and the result may have been much different. The attached images shows the alarms that were present after the incident, abs alarm, esp alarm, and anti traction light the problem was ultimately found to be a faulty wheel speed sensor on the driver side rear tire. Very dangerous, i have also found other testimonials online since this incident
