Pls fam,I need your advice and experience on this issue.

My car (Nissan Altima 09 2.5 series automatic)as been packed for close to 1 month,most night I come around to warm it and make sure the battery is still active.

Yesterday as I was driving down to iyano iba,I noticed the vehicle was no longer accelerating on drive,I meant d normal movement wen d car is on drive,wen I release my leg from the acceleration pad it looks as if I pushed dwn the break pad,so I forced it and it kept on dragging Nd was close to igando,wen I smelt smoke I had to pull over...lo and behold fire was under the vehicle,the break stirring was red...thank God for the mfm Kirk close by,de came and help put out the fire...long story short....I changed both the pads at d front,Nd I tested the vehicle it was ok.

As I left the mechanic,I noticed on drive the car was accelerating on its own,I had to use break to control the car to iyano iba Nd back to Agege without accelerating....pls I need Ur advice what exactly is wrong with my car...Ur suggest r welcomed pls

Scan for possible error codes.

Thanks

On drive the car will accelerate on its own since it is automatic transmission, now when you put it in park after it is warmed up what is the idle speed of the tachometer. I am not sure if it was your front break or rear that locked up but the calipers might have siezed up so you may need to grease up the slide pins.

Whenever your car is dragging stop and look around before things get worse
