Description of the problem | Gas pedal was stuck on full throttle on my way to work today. Pedal was all the way down and rpm's were racing as i was pushing the brakes and trying to get onto the shoulder of the highway. Very scary situation and i came close to a collision with multiple cars trying to get the car to a safe area. I was able to turn the ignition off, but the pedal stayed in the down position for over 2 minutes even with the car off. This was definitely not a floor mat issue and nothing was blocking the pedal. |
