2011 Lincoln MKZ Vehicle speed control Problems

“Car in question: 2011 Lincoln MKZ hybrid, 163,287 km (101,484 miles). Driving on a city street all of the sudden warning lights come on: ABS, traction control, giant wrench, p/brake light, service advancetrac. Brake pedal all the way to the floor, I blew a stop sign, as car was slowing down, but than just rolled thru the intersection. Had to use a parking brake to come to a complete stop when I was looking for a safe spot to pull over. Had to replace hydraulic control module and ABS module.”

If I had not hit the post the car would have gone in to a lake and I might have drowned. I was alone the car - and I had about $10,000 damage to my car. I believe the floor mat shifted and was under the accelerator and I am very distressed. …”
