 Description of the problemPurchased vehicle used from dealership. Shortly after purchase, i pulled out into traffic and accelerated heavy. The accelerator pedal popped down to the floor resulting in rapid acceleration and speed gain. I stomped the accelerator pedal and it popped back up allowing me to regain control of vehicle. Once on open road i pushed accelerator pedal to floor and it stuck again. Once again it popped up when i tapped it with my foot. After that i made sure i did not go to the floor again until the other day. I was pulling out into traffic uphill when a car seemed to be coming a little fast caused me to accelerate to near floor. At that point the accelerator popped down to the floor but would not pop back up when i tapped it with my foot. It resulted in me having to cross into the oncoming lane to avoid ramming into the rear of the vehicle in front of me which was traveling the speed limit. My hemi reached 80+ m. P. H. In a short distance in a 45 m. P. H. Zone. I finally forced the pedal up with my toe under it. This scared me enough to investigate and call chrysler. They first said the floor mat was the cause. I continued to persuade them and they now are opening an investigative case. In the meantime i continue to drive it carefully. It is my self-employed work truck too, and when it sits i do not get paid. I tried placing in park and pushing to floor without floor mat, and pedal still pops down and sticks full throttle. Found cases on internet of deaths related to this and youtube video proof of other instances. Why is there no recall or public knowledge of this?
