Started the van to pull ahead about 5ft forward in my driveway. As I dropped it into drive the van took off like a bat out of hell. Smashing into my classic corvette pushing it threw the back wall of the garage and almost taking out two of my 2- year old grand children who where playing in the garage at the time. I pulled the van to the right of the garage crashing and burying the van about 8ft deep into the garage wall. Only by the grace of god did the corvette not hit the two grand kids as it sailed through the garage 26 ft and out the back wall. Thousands of dollars of damage to both vehicles and my garage, but thank god my grand kids were not hurt. Ford is putting profit before people by not fixing this problem immediately.

I was driving in to the drive way going into garage when the RV accelerated on it own. I tried to stomp on the brakes but the tires were spinning and I could not stop it, it was accelerating at a high speed and the rear end was fish tailing and the coach just keep going forward and crashed in to the rear wall and through it. I tried to put the coach in park but it was completely out of control. There are skid marks were you could see the tires trying to stop. I managed to put it in reverse and the accelerator was still ramping out and the coach fish tailed back wards and I finally got it slammed into park. I managed to stop just before hitting a natural gas meter.

I have been waiting 7 months after I was notified of a safety recall on my 2002 econoline truck with a speed control that can catch fire. All I get from my local Ford dealer is that the repair parts have not come from the factory and they will call me when they arrive.
