As I'm driving down the road my 2007 Ford Taurus has started to accelerate on it's own. On July 9 this incident occurred and I was involved in a car accident hitting a tree. When I start my car it will rev up to 2 rpm and I have to push the gas to bring it back down. My mechanic has changed the O2 sensor and several other things. I believe this issue is fairly common but needs to be addressed. I have to ride my breaks to even stay stationary at a stop light because my car will accelerate up to 20 mph in a matter of thirty seconds. I got lucky that my children weren't with me at the time I crashed I was also lucky that I haven't read ended anyone. Now I am sitting with a very unsafe care and stuck please help me fix the issue.

Car accelerated when braking approaching intersection. Throttle appeared stuck. Had to "gun through intersection", race into plaza parking lot on other side and park irregularly shutting engine off. Tried restarting five minutes later, same problem so left parked and called for ride. Next morning called our mechanic three miles away and he said to "bring in slowly with caution so as to not accelerate into something, otherwise call for tow". Did as told and an electronic sensor was replaced. Heard recently about the problems being investigated with similar symptoms on '06 Taurus' due to possible cruise cable failure? our cruise stopped working last year-use only on long trips and so noticed at christmas going 300 miles hwy to relatives. Coincidence? anyway, was on way home today and accelerator again raced and had to pull over several times in order not to hurt transmission jamming gear shift into park since holding down brake hard wasn't stopping car. Again drove it to mechanic and was picked up. Will speak with him in the morning about checking part already replaced etc. Before an accident or transmission blowup occur(was already closed when I arrived). Part replaced has only been used a month or so by me!?.
