Description of the problem	I got my vehicle from an auction site, so i do not have any history on it before 2016. The engine light comes on and goes off at regular intervals, especially, when the car is in extremely cold or hot temperatures. The gas pedal, also, gets stuck, regularly, i would have to be very careful with my pressure on the gas pedal to avoid hitting anything. I have noticed this, over the years, with the car in stationary mode and while the car is in motion, city or highway driving but, especially, after having to perform a hard brake in traffic. I would have to keep pressing on the gas petal to get it to release itself from whatever it is allowing getting stuck to, then the performance of the car is better, until the next time of it having to be unstuck. I have taken the car in for this issue but, the mechanics do not understand what i am describing. Of course, when these persons test drive my car they do not experience the problem, like i do, so there is no documentation in my possession on any of these issues. Another issue is the key ignition switch system, the key gets stuck in the ignition switch coil thingy. I had to get it repaired because of an issue of something new happening with the battery and electrical systems being drained because of the key not being able to come out of the coil, after the engine light came, again, in highway driving speeds of 70 miles per hour. The dealership that i have been going to has not been able to give me any feedback as to what to do, other than to just say buy a newer vehicle. I have been hearing a sound, recently, when the key is about to come out of the switch that sounds like a clicking release system click. I was just wondering if a spring is bad in the system. These are all unknown components parts, by the technical name, however, the issues are real important for the safety of myself and others on the roads that i drive on.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
