About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
During normal braking, on 2 separate occasions, my father and I both experienced unintended acceleration while braking. This was caused by the fact that the accelerator pedal on our rented Ford Crown Victoria is too close to, and at the same level as, the brake pedal, causing both pedals to easily be pressed at the same time. Excessive force on the brake pedal was the only action possible to prevent accidents in both cases.
