2006 Ford Mustang GT Vehicle speed control Problems

“This is the second time this has happened. My gas pedal has gotten stick to the floor and will not let up unless I shut the car off, wait about 10 seconds then start it up again. I'm not sure if it has something to do with the throttle body getting stuck open or what. It's pretty frightening. I'm almost scared to drive the car especially when I have the kids.”

“At 12:00 pm my sister in law called me and said her 06 Mustang Gt was hesitating when accelerating, I advised her to bring it to my shop and I would check it out. I checked to see if any codes were set, and the codes were clear. I test drove the vehicle and when trying to accelerate, there was a 4-6 second delay between pushing on the accelerator pedal and the response of the engine accelerating. …”

“I was on my way to work, turned a residential corner and accelerated to merge into traffic on a highway loop. Within seconds, I realized the accelerator was not coming back up. It felt as though it had gotten stuck or sucked down into the floor board. My mind was racing--what to do! I depressed the brake but with me depressing the brakes and the accelerator racing the car, my car started to shake. My car is in excellent shape. Other than a new battery, it is primo and has been babied! …”

“Happened 2 consecutive days. My wife was driving at around 30-40 miles per hour and all of a sudden it's like the car took off and began accelerating on its own. Breaking would not really slow it down. She was lucky enough to be able to throw the car in neutral ti shiite down but the vehicle kept revving. She had to shut it down and remove the key before it would stop. It's scary when it happens. It happened to me a day earlier at the time I thought it was a fluke. Hopefully too many people don't get killed before the NHTSA takes action. …”

“Hesitation at acceleration and unintended acceleration. Hesitation was not corrected at dealership, I corrected through computer reprogram with diablo programmer to decrease amount of throttle delay, hesitation gone. Unintended acceleration corrected by modifying the brake pedal to increase distance between gas and brake pedals which are extremely to close, solved problem. Dealership mechanics are inept and unskilled. Took me half hour to identify and correct pedal issue.”
