Escape Hybrid

  • Automatic transmission
  • 120,000 miles

When I start the car and go to drive, the gas pedal is stuck. Then all of a sudden it takes off. While I am driving down the road and stop at a light, it is stuck again. Since I am blocking traffic, I pump the gas and after 5 minutes it suddenly releases and takes off. Tonight while driving, after going about 60 miles, I slowed down to allow a truck to make a turn and the gas pedal lay down on the floor and there was no power. I had to coast off into a ditch to avoid being killed. I was stuck there for 3 hours and then it released itself.

Is there a recall on this because I see multiple complaints about the same thing but no fix for the problem.
