2003 Dodge Ram 1500 cruise control problems

While reverse parking at approximately 10 MPH; the accelerator stuck to bottom of vehicle floor (sending vehicle to speed exceeding 70 MPH) and it accelerated out of control. In an attempt to stop and avoid hitting pedestrians and building behind me; I hit the brakes, but the brakes would not stop the vehicle. I was forced to place the vehicle in park shift position while hitting brake, in order to stop vehicle. At first the shift control stopped in 'd' and the vehicle shot forward, but I kept hitting the brakes.

Tl* the contact owns a 2003 dodge ram 1500. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle accelerated independently. The failure recurred numerous times and intermittently. The vehicle was taken to a dealer for diagnosis and the contact was informed that the throttle position sensor would need to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The failure and the current mileage was 95,396.
