2 Accelerator Stuck problem

Failure Date: 07/05/2006

The accelerator stuck and would not disengage - despite the fact that I removed by foot from the throttle. I applied the brakes to get the car to stop and after a few seconds the accelerator disengaged but then re-engaged (by itself) and then disengaged three or four times in three to four intervals.
