I had an oil change on saturday. after leaving the service station and driving home the vehicle begin to accelerate on its own. i tried breaking but the vehicle continued to accelerate. after barely missing two vehicles and unable to come to a complete stop, i turned off the main road and killed the ignition. still unaware of what was happening i waited a few minutes and attempted to complete my mission home only to run into the same behavior. once i arrived home i parked the car until monday morning. unable to drive i called the tow truck company and had my suv taken to the dealership. it turned out the issue was a bad throttle cable that got stuck. *tr
