2 Check Engine Light On problem

Failure Date: 10/23/2012

While at a dead stop, placed truck in drive and the engine suddenly accelerated to full power lunging the vehicle forward 10' while I simultaneously applyed both feet to the brake for maximum stopping power. This is the third time in two to three months this has happened. No check engine lights are on. Took my car to the local Ford dealer and was told by the service manager that they have never heard of this problem before. Researched the internet only to find lots of other simular complaints. Originally thought it was human error, floor mat, or simular problem. . . But this last time, I was prepared because of previous incidents. This problem can cause a terrible accident and may even result in death.
