Ask Someone: 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 #1754365784

I fueled at the gas pumps & then started it up, turned the air condition back on, put it in drive & gently touched the gas pedal. It then went into full trottle. The axles of the trailer that I was pulling hit the steel post. Then the back wheels were squealing away & I quickly shut off the key. Why did it go into full throttle? even with both feet on the brakes.

Welcome, your Ask Someone question has been redirected over to Car Talk…

Looks like this happened over 10 hours ago, so is the vehicle still at the gas station??

Or did you have it towed to a shop??

Or did you start it back up and drive it home??

Have you had a CEL light on prior to this happening??
