Sudden Unintended Acceleration
#51
A tiniest vacuum leak on the 2009 + trucks will throw the trans temp gauge whacko, the idle will add several 100/1000 rpm's and then the puter will shut the truck down and you restart it with everything normal until it does it again. The temp gauge things is due to the cluster being in sync with the puter at the hip.

I wonder if its an issue in the PCM and if replaced before any other parts would solve it. I have experienced SUA as well, but I have wide feet, and both times I was hitting the gas and brake pedals at the same time. Scared the crap out of me, but it makes me much more aware of where my right foot is now.....

My dad has been driving for 60 years and you would think he'd know the difference between the brake and the gas but that was before he drove the car through the garage door with his hunting boots on.

There were times when the brake booster will get ice in it. This would reduce, remove braking abilities. Extreme humid to very cold would create the problem, when the ice melts the brakes work again. http://www.brakeandfrontend.com/tech...-power-assist/
The oother day the temps here went from nice and warm to very cold and snow-ice. My vehicle exterior warning system went haywire until the truck warmed up good and hot. (just a point of what happens at times in cold weather changes. Airplanes auger in because of it.
