Car kept accelerating after I let off. I had to stand on the brakes to make it stop. The front wheels locked up but the car kept moving. Using 250-280 pounds of pressure on the brake pedal I finally stopped without incident. The incident can be viewed at youtube. It is titled ram cam episode 5. It is the last part of the video.

Charleston county sheriff's office marked patrol car. Driver lost control at high speed. Slid across the median. Spun 180 degrees was struck in the rear by oncoming vehicle. Continued to skid across the road and struck the guard rail with the front of the vehicle. Vehicle caught fire at the rear and burned.

I purchase my vehicle on October 24th, 2011 from a private party who said, "the coolant leak", but the vehicle over heated when I drove it home less than 3 miles away the hood of my car was smoking. After taking it to a local mechanic with my friend who drove his car to ensure my safety, my car began to over heat after driving it for 10 minutes! I was so frantic that I thought I was going to burned up in the car. The mechanic told me the next day it was the intake manifold and inform me that this may be a recall and to check with the Ford corporation and I did called Ford corporation and found out this vehicle had control cruise harness and a intake manifold recall id is 01m02, the dealership for camelback Ford in phoenix, mr. Chad mcdowell offer this recall number but his employee kevin offer to help me fix the both problems, then later on negated. I feel a recall of any vehicle should never be expired base on these issues of safety and regardless of a settlement that may have been reached, there are millions of people who need to have their vehicle repair to make it at least a whole again as much as possible and avoid a possible injury or death. I found the recall of this intake manifold offering consumer up to $ 750 to repair the car without any receipts? what about the people who purchase the vehicle afterwards, is that fair. Now my concern is that I am smelling gasoline when I am driving and I believed it may have something to do with the gas line or the sensor, and I hate putting more money into the vehicle. I fear that the mechanic will tell me its going to be a costly matter and it's never going to stop with this car and I just want to get rid of it or have it repair as it should of been by the dealership but the Ford company would not approve it.

Vehicle stopped running. Would not restart.

Ford crown vic police interceptor,2007: on two previous occasions, upon depressing brake pedal at stop sign, engine would seem to begin to race; however, after stop I would immediately let off brake to go on through stop sign and engine was normal on acceleration. To-day as I left my parking space I approached an automatic gate to pass through and depressed brake pedal to wait for gate to open and engine began to race to the point that I was unable to hold vehicle back and turned off ignition to avoid hitting gate. A large amount of black smoke resulted from racing engine. After engine shut-down, I shifted to park, started engine and had normal idle. I depressed brake to shift into drive and proceeded through gate in normal manner. The only common system that I am aware of (other than possible electrical/computer) to the fuel control is the vacuum system associated with the brake vacuum booster and whatever vacuum may affect the fuel feed. The foot pedal was definitely in an idle position. I am certain that this engine racing problem is initiated by my applying brakes.
