 I own a 2004 audi a8 quatro, this morning the car accelerated on it's own. the driver seat, steering weel, and the car suspension adjusted automatically while i was driving it and it went from 40mph to 150+ without me having my foot on the accelerator. for a minute i thought i was going to die. i slowly starting pressing on the brake pedal hoping the car would not flip. it took about 2 to 3 minutes for me to slow down the car. i put the emergency brake and turned it off. i turned it back on and the engine was still accelerated, it sounded it like the accelerator was stuck even though the car was on park.
