I have personally never had a issue with PC on my 17' truck, but I vaguely remember reading about issues others have had.
For example, @Gilligan posted this:
As he mentions, the issues people have tend to get buried in the fan boi comments, so I figure starting a thread with issues only would help keep it a little more pronounced so people could make a more informed decision before purchase.
Thanks for input
For example, @Gilligan posted this:
Mine started to cause the truck to rev up to like 3k when stopped/stopping. The final time it happened I was at a complete stop with brakes fully applied when it surged forward about the length of a parking spot. I took it off immediately after that final surge and haven’t had the problem since.
Thank god I was pulling into a space without a car in front because I would have smashed it. And if it happened where I park at work my truck would have gone down a 50ft cliff. People will shrug it off but it was scary stuff, especially because my pregnant fiancé was in the car when it happened.
After talking to a member here with a ton of knowledge on the subject I’m pretty convinced these things are untested and very unsafe. Pedal Commander has been asked for proof of testing several times but was never able or willing to provide it and all the ‘OMG its so awesome’ comments buried those conversations.
For some reason I can't figure out how to share it but I did post my dash cam vid of the final surge on FRF facebook back on May 24th when it happened. I'll try to get it posted on here later.

No sound in that video to hear our reaction or the truck revving, but you can see it
