I have had small episodes before but didn't think much of it but yesterday, pulling out of my driveway, my car started to lunge with my foot on the brake. I tried to drive and it would speed up without me doing anything. It was almost like it was going to stall but it doesn't. no control to stop the car. I don't understand, with all these complaints why Ford hasn't done anything. It is not my floor mat. I have been searching and found so many people have spent $1000S of dollars and it doesn't get fixed. I read that one person replaced the coil and it worked but that is still over $1000 and its only one person. Also, who knows if it still works. Has anyone found a fix" how can Ford keep saying they have never heard of the problem when everyone has reported the problem" it is a very dangerous problem.

Maneuvering through traffic, went to shift into 2nd (std) and the throttle stuck wide open red lined. I quickly pushed in the clutch and shut it down. Tried to restart it as I was coasting, and when it started back up, the motor was still racing, push in clutch, shut it down. Coast into a nearby parking lot, freaking out!! started it back up perfectly normal. Two days later same thing, attempt to shift into 2nd, motor redlines! I push the clutch, shut it down, and again it starts up, perfectly normal. Scary!! thankfully I have quick reaction. This is a dangerous situation for those with automatic transmissions and not so quick reactions. Come to find out there are thousands of consumers with the exact same circumstance. What is being done about this" does it take someone to die before Ford is held accountable"

I was driving down the interstate in when my accelerator started to stick and floor it, brakes were doing nothing so I threw it into neutral and eventually with much effort we came to a stop on the side of the road. When the accelerator stuck the passenger airbag also turned on the light saying it turned off. When finally stop and the car off the accelerator was stuck to the ground and it took a few tries to get the car to turn on. Very dangerous and has never done this before.

2007 manufacturing defect: Extensive leaking of water into electrical components. Causing lights to go off, or sometimes go on without switching on, windows go up and down by themselves, occasionally motor cuts out on highway, cruise control operates intermittently. Eventually this will also result in premature structural damage.

I was involved in a crash after my accelerator got stuck on a 2007 Ford Mustang V6. I had just left my house when I slowly accelerated and all of the sudden the pedal got stuck and was unable to stop until I crashed into a neighbor's rock wall. Although the impact was hard I suffered minor injuries from the air bag, other than that I am lucky to have survived. I was the scariest thing I have ever experienced.

I have an 07 Ford Mustang GT. It has a little over 18000 miles on it and the throttle has stuck several times. I press the brake and reach down and pull up the pedal. The dealer first tried to tell me it was the floor mat. It is not, the floor mat does not come into contact with the pedal. Through a BBB arbitration Ford was told to replace the vehicle. The second vehicle does the same thing. When pressed to the floor the pedal sticks and the car continues to accelerate. It is an intermittent problem that the dealer cannot replicate, so they cannot fix it. I have been blessed with fast reflexes and short legs so I can hold the brake on and pull up the gas pedal while keeping control of the car. The dealer service department has given up trying to repair it. The warranty has expired. The problem still remains.

Similar to the 2010 Fusion problem of stuck accelerator, I have had this same problem with the 2007 Ford Mustang GT. This problem has occurred ever since I received the mats in June of 2007 and has occurred numerous times! the all-weather mat is sitting on top of the standard mat and slips forward. When the accelerator is depressed fully, it does get stuck under the all-weather mat. In one incident, I was on a freeway going to pass a vehicle. When I floored the accelerator, it stuck! in a Mustang, you can imagine the amount of acceleration involved and I was up over 120mph in seconds! I had to turn off the engine to begin deceleration. Frightening!

I hope Ford jumps on this before someone gets hurt. 2007 Ford Mustang. 03/18/2010 driving down highway accelerator sticks, hit brake does not stop or disengage; tap pedal does not disengage speeds up more still stuck, kill ignition car still in drive, slip transmission to neutral and brought car to full stop.

While driving this 2007 Ford Mustang on 2/13/2010, the accelerator pedal stuck at full throttle. Stayed stuck for 3-5 seconds. Car was going in excess of 80mph. Before it released. I am a very experienced driver, and feel that this could of been a very bad situation if someone less experienced was driving.

The driver side floor mat/rug on my 2007 Mustang was not locked under the tab on the floor. This has happened on 2 separate occasions. Because the mat slides forward it interferes with the gas/accelerator pedal causing the accelerator pedal to not return and allow de-acceleration/slowing down. I took the Mustang to a local dealer to have the system checked. Their conclusion was the floor mat/rug caused the problem and that it must be locked under the tab to prevent it from sliding forward and interfering with the pedal. I believe this problem is the same as with the recent Toyota problem?? I believe a safety notice to all owners is in order to help prevent this type of potential for a serious vehicular accident.

- Panama City Beach, FL, USA

The vehicle takes approximately three to five seconds to decelerate. Ford sent a technician to investigate the failure and concluded that nothing could be done because the vehicle was designed to operate in that manner. The failure mileage was 16,694.

I have a new Ford Mustang 6 cyl. (2007). The gas pedal hesitates to "catch", and then lurches the car forward. When I bought the car in March 2007 (new) I brought it back to the dealer, who had it checked out. They said it was "normal" for this to happen, and I "would get used to it". I have driven it for a year in the san francisco area. It lurches forward when I accelerate from stop signs, traffic lights, etc. It is a big nuisance, but I didn't think it was that serious until I was driving in the trinity alps mountain area of northern California. On twisty mountain roads the hesitation and lurching in the gas pedal almost caused me to go over the side of a 3000 ft mountain road! it is extremely difficult to keep control of this car on winding mountain roads, and it is extremely dangerous to drive this car on such roads. I just brought it back into the dealership. They again said it was a "normal" situation for this model of car, and refused to get it fixed. There is apparently no way to adjust the throttle control, unlike in older cars with a throttle cable (this has a computer-type chip). This must be fixed or someone will eventually get killed!

With foot off the gas pedal, car takes off at 30 mph (4,000 RPM) and could not stop. Ran a stop sign car did this twice within first 250 miles of use. We are now afraid to drive it and are having it towed to the dealer. It happened with 2 different drivers on 2 separate days. Please be advised this is a very dangerous condition. The consumer stated the floor mat was incorrectly installed by the salesman and the floor mat was properly installed problem is resolved. Updated 09/11/07

I was driving my 2007 Ford Mustang GT down city streets when the accelerator locked up. The car continued to accelerate despite removing my foot from the gas pedal and applying the brakes did little to help slow the car. This caused me to run a 3-way intersection, which forced me to turn at dangerous rate of speed. I ended up running the car off the road, over a curb/sidewalk and into a small tree to stop it. The car sustained damage to both driver's side tires, the driver's front fender, bumper, driver's side front wheel and front suspension.
