NHTSA complaint #11398593, filed 2021-03, 100,000 miles“My truck started self accelerating after about 1,000 miles. It happens when im braking. Not every time, but its happening more often and the RPM's are revving higher. This has also happened in reverse. I almost wrecked at 3 different intersections, and 4 times I came very close to damaging parked cars when trying to park, and once almost hit an employee of mine on the job site, and lastly, several times I came close to driving into my own home. I have had the truck back at the dealership 3 times and they cant reproduce the problem. Am now waiting on a flight recorder to be installed.”
