I was going north on collier avenue in naples, florida stopped at the intersection with davis avenue at 3 pm with my foot on the brake when there was unintended acceleration. I jammed down hard on the brake and shifted into neutral. The motor reved up hard for a short time, the light turned green, the cars ahead pulled forward, I shifted into drive, took my foot off the brake, and the car and accelerator returned to normal and I proceeded forward. Everything returned to normal. I am familiar with unintended acceleration because I experienced it previously in my 1995 (not positive of exact year) Audi.

We had a 2009 msk which excelerated by it self on April 21, 2014 and caused my wife to hit a tree and spend three days in the hospital and also totaled out our car. Not knowing that there was a problem with the car, we brought a 2010 Mks on may 7, 2010 and on may 8, 2014 when my wife pulled into our driveway, that car also had an unintended acceleration aposide causing it to surge at a high speed running through our garage door and the corner of our house. I then looked on the internet and discovered that there were several class action law suits in about 14 states dealing with the same problem, of unintended acceleration dealing with the electronic throttles causing this dangerous situation. To our surprise both of the cars we brought the 2009 and 2010 Mks was on this list for this scary and frightening problem. Now how you we get this defect corrected, so we can drive the car safely? is there an TSB repair bulletin sent to the dealers for this repair? please someone help. Thanks.
