Under heavy acceleration to merge into traffic the accelerator stuck in the wide open position once pressure had been removed from the pedal. Upon examination, there were no physical obstructions (ie, floor-mat, loose objects) which would cause the pedal to jam in this position. High revving and uncommanded acceleration persisted for several seconds until the brake pedal was depressed heavily to avoid colliding with the vehicle in front.
