You've been driving the vehicle for 3+ months w this problem? gee.
What model?
It seems like I read somewhere that there was a TSB or service bulletin in regards to an accelerator problem... perhaps something do w the throttle cable - not sure, though. And I don't know what years. The problem sounds mechanical, so it could be a carbon-clogged throttle plate, sticking throttle cable or maybe a warped throttle body. Just some guesses based on known problems pertaining to the Ford Escape.
