WHEN ADJUSTING THE PEDALS WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD, USING THE SWITCH MOUNTED ON THE DRIVERS SEAT, THE PEDALS WENT DOWN TOWARD THE FLOOR AND THE ENGINE'S RPM INCREASED. I DIDN'T NOTICE WHAT WAS HAPPENING AT FIRST AND THEN THE ENGINES RPM INCREASED AND THE VEHICLE SPEED JUMPED TO 75 MPH. I TRIED BAKING AND THE CAR SLOWED DOWN TO 45 MPH. SINCE I WAS IN A 35 MPH ZONE AND WAS APPROACHING A CAR AHEAD OF ME I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND THE ENGINE RPM INCREASED VERY HIGH. I CAN'T SAY HOW HIGH IT WENT AS I WAS BUSY TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WENT WRONG AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT. I TURNED INTO A PARKING LOT AND SHUT THE ENGINE OFF. I STARTED THE CAR AGAIN AND THE ENGINE RPM SHOT UP OVER 6000. KNOWING THAT THE ONLY THING I DID WAS ADJUST THE PEDALS I PUSHED THE SWITCH IN THE OTHER DIRECTION AND RAISED THE PEDALS. THE RPM WENT BACK TO NORMAL IDLE SPEED. I PUSHED THE SWITCH TO LOWER THE PEDALS AND THE ENGINE RPM PICKED UP AGAIN AS THE PEDALS WENT DOWN SO I RAISED THE PEDALS UP AGAIN UNTIL THE RPM RETURNED TO IDLE SPEED. THE CAR CONTINUES TO DO THIS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS SINCE THERE WAS NO WARNING THIS COULD HAPPEN WHEN ADJUSTING THE PEDALS AND IT COULD UNDER RARE CIRCUMSTANCES BE TRIGGERED IF SOME OBJECT WAS IN BETWEEN THE SWITCH AND THE FLOOR WHEN THE SEAT IS MOVED REARWARD. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT AND NO ONE WAS INJURED.
