1 Car Throttle Stuck problem

Failure Date: 05/21/2019

I went to stivers Ford about the air bag be to the end of January and the beginning of February the mechanic took my recall information said they would call me as soon as the new bags got in never heard from them I called every month only to be told nothing came in yet so I called Ford customers service they had me on hold the mechanic in montgomery stated that there was no record of me ever being there. Customer service left me on the phone with the mechanic to make an appointment she hung up the phone I gave the mechanic my first and last name then he repeated back to me my first and last name with my address keep in mind he had all of my information in the system the whole time. So I made an appointment for Friday may 31 2019. There is a faulty tire light on that won't go away even when I had the tire checked the car stopped in the middle of the intersection during the green light in heavy traffic the 🔧 light came on with the check engine light and the flashing faulty tire light . I put the car in park and turned off the engine then restarted the car and drove home I was very afraid because the cars behind me were moving pretty fast I was blessed to not be hit from behind. Next day drove the car to a repair shop. Every thing was working fine they ran a diagnosis showing the throttle was stuck and would not reset so it is stuck.

2 Car Throttle Stuck problem

Failure Date: 03/20/2018

The throttle stuck (2nd time, both times similar) recent experience:03/20/2018: location: entrance ramp PA turnpike at somerset exit. The turnpike traffic was moving extremely slowly due to weather\accident (estimate 15 25 mph). I had purposely hung way back (100 - 150 ft) of car ahead of me as driver did not seem experienced or confident. After thinking that the vehicle in front was going to make its merge, I started accelerating up to the then turnpike traffic speed. The car in front though did not merge but stopped instead. I then needed to slow down or stop. When attempting to slow down, my car did not want to slow down, throttle seemed stuck. I then started pressing the brake pedal with both feet as hard as I could. Though my car did stop before hitting the vehicle in front, it was an extremely tense experience. Previously, a couple years ago, I had a similar experience. I did not report at that time. In that experience, I was approaching an intersection in the city of erie. My approach was on a slight uphill. The light changed from green to red and I went to stop. Again, it seemed as though the throttle stuck. As it was on an uphill I was expecting to use little or no brake. My car though kept at speed. Again, I jumped on the brake pedal with both feet as hard as I could. In this case, I did lightly strike the back of a vehicle that stopped ahead of me at the traffic signal. The car I hit did not receive any damage. My car though had a grill piece puncture the air conditioner item that holds its liquid.
