“I drive a Ford program car - a used 2007 Crown Victoria (a former rental vehicle). On the day of my accident - after pulling onto a busy street from a parking lot - I almost immediately applied my brakes because I was coming up to a red light where several cars had already come to a stop ahead of me. At first my car slowed normally but, as I applied the brakes to come to a complete stop, the engine began to rev' up. I tried tapping the brake to see if this would help to disengage the throttle's revving. It didn't help. I kept trying this. …”
NHTSA complaint #10510474, filed 2013-05, 47,362 miles“Abs brakes/brake fluid. When I apply my brakes on a hill, steep slope, and especially while turning the steering wheel, the brakes will start to make a mechanical noise and will almost start to loose the brakes, causing the pedal to slip closer to the floor. The steering is also very loos and feels like there s an extreme play in the wheel or a missing pin of some sort”
