3 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 02/02/2010

I have a 2003 Acura Mdx which from time to time experiences a sticking accelerator. It has happened several times since I bought the car new in 2003. I have always been able to stomp on the brakes and the car stops but it is scary and was wondering if others have been having similar problems?.
