Mercury Sable 2005 Vehicle Speed ControlMercury Sable 2005 Vehicle Speed Control Review #10606868 MERCURY SABLE 2005 car safety problem was reported on June 20, 2014.MERCURY SABLE 2005, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . my 2005 mercury sable suddenly had the cruise control stop working approximately 30 days ago. the next day some serious issues began to happen. i was traveling down a curvy 4 lane road at the posted speed limit of 45mph. knowing there was an up coming light i took my my foot off the brake and anticipated the normal deceleration. suddenly rather than slowing down my engine independently revved up to 3/4 rmp causing me to instantly jump to 50/55 mph. apart from the immediate panic i have never had a vehicle react in this manner and was at a loss for what to do. i hit the brakes extremely hard to combat the acceleration while putting the car into neutral (still going 40+ mph). despite having the car in neutral it was still revving itself at around 3 rpm. after slowing down to a safe speed i turned into a parking lot and immediately turned the car off. i left the car resting for about minutes and when started again, it immediately began revving the same as before. i am very concerned and have been since troubleshooting with my mechanic. this is clearly a very dangerous issue and significantly lowers my mpg while putting triple the stress on my brakes.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 108500 miles.
