For no reason, the front door on the driver's side will not open from the inside. You have to roll down the window and open it with the outside door handle.

2005 Lincoln tonw car accelerator sticks, with cruise control not engaged. It will accelerate while braking, at a stop, in reverse, and almost anytime at anytime. I brought the car into the shop, first time they billed me to clean things out. This didn't work so they said they would drive it to see what it was. Less than 1/8th tank of gas and a week later they found nothing. Gave it back with a computor in it and a button to push when it did it again. 3 days later I had 4 examples pushed on there computor. Now they said they can't retrive the information.
