my car has been idling fast...my foot can be on the brake all the way to the floor and the rpm's are at 2 and i'm going 15-20 miles per hour. then yesterday i got onto the freeway and i brought the car to 60 mph and it stuck there...my rpm's were around 3 and i could not get the car to slow down. i hit the gas and reved it a few times and i felt a pop in the gas peddle and it released and began to slow down. Please any advice would be so helpful, i have a small child and this is our only mode of transportation. Thank you
