1999 Dodge Durango 5.2. engine accelerated with throttle stuck full open I was unable to brake. I was traveling around a bend around 45mph downhill as I got to the turn in the bend my car accelerated tremendously I applied the brakes to slow down and was unable too. I checked the mat, it felt like the gas pedal was stuck to the floor the way the car sounded. I checked to see if anything else was in the way shoes, carpet. Nothing! they were no check engine light on nor the cruise control on. The car started to really race. I had a cliff on one side of me and an embankment on the other. I was catching up with the cars in front of me so I needed to stop immediately. I placed two feet forcebly on the brakes and didn't notice any slowing down at all and I was nearing the embankment. I steered out of traffic only to notice my car going faster as we are now coming to a level highway. I steered off to the side and put the gear in neutral and applied the brakes no luck! I stepped on the parking brake, placed the car in park and turned off the engine. This finally stopped the car. Towed the car to my mechanic couldn't find out anything because they could not duplicate the problem. 2 weeks ago this happened again, it went straight to the dealers and they can't find anything. They installed a co-Pilot to pick up the error codes the next time this happens. Basically a black box. I am afraid to drive it. I was lucky I didn't get into 2 accidents, though I came really close. My car is still at the dealership. I want them to really diagnose every part of this car. They still cannot find anything wrong they wanted me to pick it up, knowing what had happened. This is not driver error. I regularly maintain my car. This is a defect, and places everyone in harms way. Car racing uncontrollably and unable to stop the acceleration with the brakes this is a real problem.
