I was on highway with my family travelling 60 mph when the car suddenly accelerated. . I took my foot off the gas and the speed failed to decrease. I applied the brakes which did work but the engine still continued to race. . The brakes overtook the acceleration and slowed the car but each time I took my foot off the brakes the car resumed accelerating at a high speed( without my foot on the gas. ) I slowed the car by applying with force the brakes which was causing a burning smell probably from the brake pads. I drove the car to the closest shoulder of the highway ( about 1/2 mile) that I encountered at which point I placed the car in neutral while it was still moving slightly while my foot pushing hard against the brake. . While the car was in neutral the engine still continued to race although the car was stationary at that point. I turned off the engine and then waited about five minutes. After five minutes I turned on the engine at which time it was not racing. The car was taken to my Jaguar dealership and left there for three days. A report was sent by the dealer to Jaguar although my dealership was unable to determine the cause of the sudden acceleration.
