Description of the problem	2006 dodge ram 1500 big horn edition hemi yesterday i went to pass a truck and floored the pedal, i went to let up and noticed the pedal was stuck. So i slightly hit the brake but that didn't do much at 85 mph and accelerating. Was late at night and no 1 on the road so i let it accelerate and tried messing with the gas pedal with my foot but nothing would pop it out. So with the speedometer buried past 120 i put it into neutral came to a stop on side of the road. Tried messing with the gas pedal with my hand but nothing would pop it out. So sitting with rpms maxed out in neutral and no way to disengage the acceleration i turned the truck off and immediately the gas pedal popped out. I started the truck back up and drove home 50 miles with no incidents i just didn't floor the gas pedal. But next day wanted to see if i could recreate the incident. So on a safe road to try it i floored the pedal and same exact thing it got stuck only way to unstick is turn truck off. I did this 5 times and every time it happens. There is no mats or anything catching on pedal and no way to manually pull the pedal out it is really stuck when this happens. Only thing to get it unstuck is turn truck off and it pops out like instantly. Truck is sitting in my driveway and i am able to recreate the problem at any time. Im posting this for some suggestions on what i should do? Possible lawsuit? Report it to who? Or just take it to dealership and get charged to fix it and no report of malfunctioning truck? If this had happened the first time during daylight or commute traffic not late night who knows what would have happened. And there are few reports of same thing happening to similar dodge trucks on the various dodge forums.
