I drove into garage at about 1 m. P. H. And put the car in park. After idling for about 3 seconds the engine accelerated to 2,800 r. P. M. And stayed there,I couldn't get it to slow down. I pressed on the accelerator many times,it wouldn't slow down or speed up. It just stayed at the same speed. Pressing the brake pedal didn't do anything. I got it stopped by turning off the ignition. When this happened the check engine light came on. I got code p2138. I am replacing the accelerator pedal position sensor as I am afraid to drive it. The car is exactly 5 years old,I bought it new. It has 16,552 miles on it now. I was very lucky it was in park when it did this. I hope the new part fixes it. After 4 restarts the check engine light went out. I took it for a short drive,and the engine kept wanting to run fast. Two days later it seems ok,it slows down now.
