JUST BOUGHT A 2009 MUSTANG GT ON MARCH 13TH. TOOK IT TO THE STORE, AND WAS AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT WAITING FOR A GREEN LIGHT. THE LIGHT CHANGED AND I PULLED THE CAR OUT. I WENT FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR, AND WHEN I LET OFF THE CLUTCH THE CAR ACCELERATED AND CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE. I PUSHED HARD ON THE BRAKES BUT IT CONTINUED TO GAIN SPEED. IT THREW ME TO THE RIGHT LANE, FORTUNATELY NOBODY WAS THERE, AND OFF THE EDGE OF THE ROAD AS IT KEPT SPEEDING UP. I HELD THE WHEEL TIGHT WHILE STILL CONTINUING TO TRY TO STOP THE CAR. BEFORE I KNEW IT I WAS IN A MUDDY DITCH, AND IT SLUNG ME AROUND AND THE REAR OF THE CAR UP ONTO THE BANK. THE THICK MUD GRABBED THE WHEELS AND SLOWED THE CAR DOWN ENOUGH THAT THE FRONT BUMPER WAS DUG INTO THE GROUND AND THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR WHEEL OFF THE GROUND, IT FINALLY HAD STOPPED. I AM GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP IN THE MORNING WITH THE CAR AND HOPE THEY CAN FIND THE PROBLEM AND FIX IT. WE LOVE THIS CAR AND WANT TO BE ABLE TO BE SAFE IN IT. THANK GOD MY WIFE AND CHILDREN WERE NOT IN IT. THINGS COULD'VE ENDED BADLY, FORTUNATELY TRAFFIC WAS NOT AROUND ME AND I WASN'T INJURED, ALTHOUGH DUE TO THE ROUGH RIDE IM SURE ILL BE SOMEWHAT SORE IN THE MORNING. HOPE THE PROBLEM GETS SOLVED SOON, EVIDENTIALLY IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS HAD THIS PROBLEMS. *TR
