Thats right, the guy in the US did the test with the car in park, short a fuse and the car reved up as though the throttle had stuck.

Thus showing even in park Fords do this - actually he stated this to be an issue with all modern cars due to increasing amount of electronics that isn't designed for the tolerances an engine bay throws at them - heat, etc

I had a Daewo that use to do it - when it first started it use to rev very high - they use to call it electronic choke - remember when they use to get stuck open and never closed - only old school people prob would remember those days
