Vehicle Speed Control
2003 ford explorer started acceleration from 40 km up to 90 km in just seconds, brakes wouldn't stop or slow it down, used emergency brake, and it eventually stopped. Took it to ford, and their reason for the acceleration was floor mat in the way. What a joke, that's was the first thing i checked for and they weren't in the way. Thanks for your time. *tr
