problem #2

Feb 152001

F-150 4WD

  • miles
Truck started accelerating uncontrollably to the point that brakes could not stop vehicle, only turning off engine would do so. This problem was not cause by floormats ! to this point (2/17) dealer hasn't found anything wrong. The truck has experienced this problem three times in the last 500 miles. The last time truck continued to have this problem when restarted. It had to be towed to the dealer. This is a very dangerous condition, I barely was able to control the truck the last time.
