While driving about 65 mph took foot off accelerator pedal, but the engine did not decelerate. Had to apply emergency brakes to control vehicle. Then, took vehicle to dealer. But, they could not find out what had caused the situation. The floor mat was caught under the accelerator pedal and caused the vehicle not to decelerate, this was according to 2 other dealers.
