Accelerator Stuck problems of the 2006 Ford Mustang

This is the second time this has happened. My gas pedal has gotten stick to the floor and will not let up unless I shut the car off, wait about 10 seconds then start it up again. I’m not sure if it has something to do with the throttle body getting stuck open or what. It’s pretty frightening. I’m almost scared to drive the car especially when I have the kids.

Driving my 2006 automatic transmission Mustang scs on the freeway and accelerated to pass a car when the throttle went to the floor and became stuck. I had intended to accelerate from about 65 to 70. I tried to brake and this prevented me from speeding up past 85 but did not stop the car or even slow it down. The throttle was completely stuck. This lasted for about 12 - 15 seconds and then released on its own. Floor mats were not in the way at all; the first thing I checked. Plus, I'd been driving perfectly fine up to that point and did not in any way shirt the mats around while driving. There are a lot of posts about this if you google "2006 Mustang accelerator stuck". I hope that Ford will finally be accountable.

My daughter's 2006 Ford Mustang accelerator stuck this afternoon and almost caused her to hit a vehicle in front of her. While starting to pass another vehicle on a two lane highway she noticed oncoming traffic and was attempting to end the passing maneuver when the engine accelerator "stuck" wide open. The pedal itself had complete freedom of movement and no matter what she tried to do to get it "unstuck" the accelerator remained at full throttle. Full brakes were unable to slow the cars speed. The throttle finally released after about 10-15 seconds of full acceleration and she was able to stop the car before hitting any other vehicle on the highway. I have call a local Ford dealership, nevada Ford at (417)667-3385 or (800)999-3368 and asked the service manager about any safety recalls or information on this type of problem. He told me that he had not heard of any complaints on this issue from Ford. I just did a quick search on line and found several complaints about sticking accelerators on Ford Mustangs. She bought this car used from miler-quinn in harrisionville missouri about February or March of this year and has not had any problems with it until this. Now I believe there may have been an issue with the original owner due to the low price my daughter was able to purchase the car for, $10,500. It booked for $14,500 at the time of purchase from a dealership. Please contact either myself or my daughter on this issue.

The contact owns a 2006 Ford Mustang gt. While proceeding from a stop light the accelerator pedal became stuck. The vehicle then accelerated over 100 mph. He had to reach down to separate the accelerator pedal from the floor-board. He was able to drive the vehicle to the dealership for inspection. The technician stated that it would cost $800. 00 to repair the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified, but because the warranty was expired, he was not provided with any assistance. A mechanic speculated that the throttle body became jammed. No repairs were made. The current and failure mileages were approximately 46,000. The vehicle identification number was unavailable.
