What owners wrote
While driving there was unattended acceleration. Consumer's foot actually was on the brake and at the accelerator pedal at the same time. The pedals were very close together. Accident occurred. Vehicle was totaled. Upon impact, the air bags did not deploy......once off the exit ram slid through grass an dinto pine tree.
ABS light is on and had test done and comes up as rear speed control sensor. Have replaced numerous times and still no change. Have taken to ford dealerships, mercury dealerships, and other well known maintenance shops and no one knows what is wrong. Since the light has come on the front brakes feel like they are dragging. Also the display on the premium radio works when it wants to.
