After three instances of strong unintended acceleration (one of which nearly caused an accident) the dealer replaced the accelerator pedal assembly. During two of the incidents I heard a click, after which the truck returned to normal. No other instances after the assembly was replaced.

This is my third battery since I bought this truck new in 2018. Not sure why this is happening. Other than the full-on uncontrolled accelerations I experienced due to a stuck electronic pedal when I initially bought the truck, I have had no other issues.
