Driving on the interstate, the vehicle throttle stuck at about 75 to 80 mph. The vehicle held this speed on its own for about 5 miles. I pulled on to the shoulder and had to stand on brakes to stop vehicle. With brakes on, the vehicle was still trying to accelerate. I put Escape in park and turned off auto. When I did, it lurched forward. After waiting a few minutes, I restarted car while in park with brakes on hard. The car lurched forward again and immediately after turning ignition jumped up to 4000 rpm. Turned off car and had towed to dealership. After the looked at the car, they said they could not "verify my claim"; therefore, they could not do anything. I was charged $100 for a service call and they did nothing. In the past, my gas pedal has also stuck and had to be mashed hard to get the car to run like many other complaints I've seen here for the same make and model. I had the throttle cleaned and it stopped, but it was very dangerous and almost caused me to get rear ended many times. Today's issue with the car stuck going 80 mph was much much worse. Looks like many people are asking for a recall that has not happened yet!.
