THE TRUCK WAS PURCHASED OCT, 2006. JUNE, 2007 UPON APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION I MOVED MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR TO THE BRAKE. THE ENGINE DID NOT DECELERATE FOR APPROX. 2 SEC. JULY, 2007 WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH I MOVED MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR TO THE BRAKE TO SLOW FOR A LEFT TURN. THE TRUCK WOULD NOT DECELERATE FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 SEC. THE TRUCK REVVED TO APPROX. 5000 RPMS. AS I TOOK THE DITCH, THE ACCELERATION STOPPED. NOV, 2007 I STARTED MY TRUCK IN THE DRIVEWAY. AS SOON AS I SHIFTED INTO DRIVE THE TRUCK REVVED TO APPROX. 5000 RPMS. I STOOD ON THE BRAKE AS AS THE BACK RIGHT TIRE SQUEALED, LEAVING BLACK TREAD MARKS IN MY DRIVE. I SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL. THE ACCELERATION DID NOT STOP. I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF. WHEN I RESTARTED THE TRUCK IT IDLED NORMALLY. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY, CLAIMING THAT SHOULD RESOLVE THE ISSUE. DEC, 2007 WHILE IN BUSY TRAFFIC IN THE RAIN AND DRIVING THROUGH A BUSY INTERSECTION, I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR TO BRAKE. THE TRUCK REVVED TO APPROX. 6000 RPMS, NEARLY REAR ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND THE ACCELERATION STOPPED. I WENT BACK TO THE DEALER. THE SERVICE MANAGER DROVE IT FOR A WEEK AND FOUND NOTHING. IT WAS RETURNED TO US WITH A BLACK BOX INSTALLED CALLED A "FLIGHT RECORDER". WE WERE INSTRUCTED TO PRESS THE BUTTON ON THE DEVICE AT THE NEXT OCCURRENCE TO CAPTURE DATA TO "PROVE" THE PROBLEM. THE FIFTH INCIDENT OCCURRED AGAIN IN MY DRIVEWAY FEB 2, 2008. AS I SHIFTED INTO DRIVE THE TRUCK REVVED TO APPROX. 6000 RPMS. I STOOD ON THE BRAKE AS THE BACK RIGHT TIRE SQUEALED, LEAVING TREAD MARKS ON THE DRIVE. I PRESSED THE BUTTON ON THE FLIGHT RECORDER AND SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL. THE ACCELERATION STOPPED AND I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER. AFTER A WEEKS TIME AND INSPECTION BY A COMPANY ENGINEER, WE WERE ADVISED THE CAPTURED INFORMATION HAD BEEN LOST AND THAT THE ENGINEER BELIEVED I WAS ACCIDENTALLY STANDING ON THE ACCELERATOR IN LIEU OF THE BRAKE. *TR

SPARK PLUG BROKE INSIDE OF ENGINE WHILE REPLACING. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION I FOUND THAT THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM THAT FORD HAS REFUSED TO RECALL EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE CHANGED MECHANICAL PROCEDURES FOR REPLACING PLUGS AT THE DEALERSHIP.
