While accelerating to pass slow vehicle, I pulled back in lane and attempted to slow down but the accelerator was stuck and continued to accelerate up to 70 mph before I heard it release and then the truck slowed. Within 20 minutes I accelerated again and once again the pedal stuck and continued to accelerate without foot pressure.

This is a brand new truck I have purchased about 3 weeks ago. I have noticed some strange behavior of the accelerator pedal, I had an impression that sometimes it was getting a bit stuck or changed the position on its own. Today I have discovered by myself that the accelerator pedal assembly is completely loose, all 3 bolts are not torqued at all, I could turn them with my bare fingers. This explains the strange behavior I observed. Last week I complained to the dealer about the rough downshifting, they did a test drive (!) and found nothing wrong. I have made a video, I hope it will better explain the nature of the problem: Https://youtu.be/B9ijtdtdqya I definitely consider this a safety issue and I suspect Ford does not have adequate quality control to ensure that the accelerator assembly is installed correctly. I am going to see the dealer tomorrow morning.
