I was turning into my neighborhood going approximately 15 mph when an emergency light flashed on and off. It was so quick that I was unable to identify which emergency light. After driving another 100 feet the emergency light that is an exclamation point in a triangle lit up and stayed on as my vehicle slowed down. The accelerator stopped working entirely. The engine did not rev as I tried to accelerate the car. I was able to apply the brakes and bring the car to a stop. I put the car in park and then in drive and the car drove without further incident. It has since been at the dealership for the last week. In the last few weeks I also noticed that while at stop lights if I was applying pressure to the brake and simply applied a little more pressure, the uneven terrain emergency light turned on and would allow the car to drive until I put it in park and again put it in drive. This happened on numerous occasions. The dealership is investigating these issues currently.
