F-150

  • 5,000 miles
Ford F-150 has accelerated with foot on brake pedal 4 times, twice while in reverse, twice when stopping, always at low speed. It was hard to stop truck, even with foot full on pedal. The engine was racing with high RPM's. restarting engine resolved issue or putting it in neutral. There is also an issue with A/C ventilation. Temperature varies from cool to hot when dial is set to mostly cool air flow, requiring constant adjusting. Truck has been to dealer 3 times and am told they can't fix it unless they experience it themselves.
