While driving 60 miles an hour during rush hour the gas pedal disappeared. The bracket that attaches to the firewall became separated and I lost all ability to accelerate. I was able somehow to get across 2 lanes of traffic and park on the shoulder of a major interstate.

While driving at approximately 35 miles per hour, my 1999 ford explorer lost all power. My foot was on the accelerator and I was traveling at a constant speed. It was very, very scary and I was lucky to steer the car into a turning lane prior to the vehicle losing all momentum and coming to a complete stop. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership where they told me that the problem might be the fuel pump, but they didn't seem too sure about it, which worried me to the point that I have decided not to have it repaired at this time. I am now afraid to drive my car in the event that this could happen again!
