I have a new 2006 f 150 with the triton engine and I absoutely loved this truck, but sitting in a traffic jam this past week with my foot on the BRAKE, the truck for no reason accelerated out of control. The power was more force than the brake could stop and was lighting up the back tires like a dragster at the tree. I had enough wit about me to turn the key off before plowing into the car in front of me. It is in the shop right now and I have been told the standard response. (I confused the brake pedal and the accelerator) Oh stupid me, why didn't I think of that. How can you confuse the pedal sitting dead stopped in traffic???? then why didn't I hit the car in front of me? And this thing about the brakes being stronger than the drive train is a lie.
Let me tell you one thing, I am not a lawyer but a soon to be Non-Ford driver and so will my wife. What I experienced scared me to no end. All the responses I have read from you people on the support sites seem to have the Legal protection ring to it. All I want is for FORD to fix my truck, not feed me a line.
Please see if someone can reply to this without the standard response. If Ford would give me a satisfactory reply at the dealership that they have diagnosed the problem and fixed it, I would change my mind, but that is not what I got. All I can say is wake up and face reality.
