What owners wrote
2009 honda accord was in reverse and pulling out of driveway. Accelerator was "stuck" and speed increased while taking foot "off" accelerator.
Started from stop at light intersection and accelerated while making a left turn. After letting off accelerator and now going straight, found car was still accelerating at full throttle. Began heavily stepping on brake with continued unintended acceleration continuing. Shifted from drive to neutral and RPM meter showed engine revving toward 7000 RPM and decided to go back to drive gear to avoid causing engine damage while still heavily stepping on brake.
