I lost brake pressure and did not receive any warning that something was wrong. In fact, when i…

While breaking to stop at an intersection the truck unintentionally accelerates and will not stop. The abs brake pulsations continued walking the f150 into the intersection as the engine rpms climbes. I put it in neutral, the engine revves very high, i released the brake and then slammed it back down. The rpms drop to normal and the truck stoppes. It has done this once every year since 2011. It shows no trouble…
