Whenever accelerator pedal is applied, the pedal would stick to floor & would not let up. Vehicle would suddenly take off. Would apply brakes, but vehicle fail to stop. Vehicle hit a curb & went airborne & landed 200 feet facing the other direction. Drive vehicle to shop to have mechanic check the throttle linkages on vehicle.
