I was approaching a red light and approximately 3 car lengths away from the vehicle already stopped at the light I began braking and heard a noise under the floor board and while pushing the brake pedal all the way down and the braking system did not slow or stop the vehicle at all. I lifted the brake pedal from the floor and reapplied it and the vehicle did not slow down or stop until it ran into the back of the other vehicle. Upon impact the vehicle began to idle up really high as if it were trying to drive itself. I took my foot off the break pedal and after I placed the vehicle in park and pulled the emergency break the vehicle stopped idling up high.

I was approaching a stop light, two cars were already at full stop, I applied the brakes and my car came to a complete stop approxametely 10 feet behind the car in front of me. All the sudden my engine started like my foot is on gas instead of the brakes, I pushed on the breaks as hard as I can without any response, I hit the car in front of me. This is the first time that it happen. I drove the car this afternoon, it is driving fine. I went to a parking lot and I applied the breaks then pushed gas at the same time, the car did not move. My breaks are fine. I don't know what happen and why it happened, but I know for a fact that my breaks ewre fully applied, and the car was at a complete stop before it moved on its own. Skid marks were visible, but the car kept moving.
