Accelerator on vehicle stuck on interstate highway. Tried to put vehicle into neutral however RPM's spun to 7000. Had to eventually turn car off in drive after riding approximately 2 miles with both feet on brake. Dealership unable to identify any issues, and told me "it'll probably not happen again"
