 Description of the problemI was driving along the highway, at approximately 60 mph, attempting to pass another vehicle. When i pressed on the accelerator it got stuck, the gas pedal went to the floor and truck accelerated rapidly on it's own. I mashed the brakes to the floor and the engine continued to rev and over power the brakes. I put my truck in neutral, and after an abrupt jerk, i pulled over to the far lane as the tires screeched to a stop. There was no shoulder and there were guard rails blocking me from getting to the median and no exits nearby, all the while the truck is continuing to rev out. I shut my truck off with the key, as soon as i could, to avoid damaging the engine or transmission due to the high rpms. After we sat, stopped, on the far lane of the highway for about 30 seconds (cars flying by honking) i tried to start the truck back up and it wouldn't start, turned it over again and it started. Obviously, this was a very dangerous situation, as we were on a 4 lane highway with traffic going 60+ mph all around us, my wife and 2 small children were in the truck at the time. There should be some kind of brake override for an unintended and out of control acceleration like what we experienced. I woke up the next morning with a crick in my neck, hopefully it's just stress and not an actual injury. I'm thankful no one was seriously hurt. Ford, you need to do something about this before someone gets injured, or worse.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
