Sticking throttle or gas pedal.
I had just pulled into a parking space and was about to shift from drive to park when my 1999 concorde took off jumped a curb stop and hit a tree, where the engine continued to accellerate and the wheels dug 5-6 inch ruts in the ground, before reversing jumping back over the curbing and stopping. The whole time my foot was also on the brake which didn't respond.

While driving on I-95 at 60 MPH the vehicle started rapidly accelerating on it's own with my foot off the gas pedal. Applied brakes and shifted to neutral. Came to a stop. Put car in park and then into drive and car rapidly accelerated, tires smoking! Brakes applied at maximum pressure car still accelerated. Shifted to neutral and turned key off.
Alarmed to see other consumer complaints of similar problems with the steering and failure of rack and pinion and front end suspension. Also, we have replaced the sway bar links. We have repeatedly had problems with A/C erratic operation as other consumers reported. Fully alarmed by numerous fuel throttle and seatback collapse problems reported. R&p steering unit replaced. Steering was real loose.

I put car in reverse in parking lot and it lunged forward at full throttle with tires smoking, sideswipping one vehicle and pushed parked 2nd vehicle 30 ft into parking lot isle. My foot never left the brake pedal (used to shift), and brakes were useless in trying to stop the car. After hitting the second car (totalling it) got car stopped by slamming gear shift lever into park. This is the 3rd instance of this happening in the milwaukee area that is known to us. Substancial injuries were incurred in second instance where car when through garage door with severe facial injuries. The 3rd car went through a window of a business. All 3 were 1999 chrysler products. Chrysler refuses to accept any blame for the accident and sent us a form letter saying the car was okay when it left the factory. Our car was a chrysler concorde lxi, the 2nd a chrysler lhs, and the 3rd a dodge neon.
