| Description of the problem | : i am the owner of a 2005 jeep wrangler. For the last 10+ years my accelerator has stuck at full throttle 5-7 times. Every time i have taken it to a shop - they have test driven it but no sticking. Last wednesday (5/22) at a 4 way stop sign my accelerator stuck again at full throttle & i hit a car. No one was hurt, but i was given a citation with witnesses to the accelerator being stuck. The man at the shop told me his jeep wrangler had a recall for the same issue. I contacted jeep corporation & filed a report (case [xxx]) with a worker "aly". She told me to park my jeep and an inspector would be there to investigate. That was more than a week ago & 5 calls to 1-877-426-5337. Can you help me? My insurance co. Wants me to get estimates for my damage but i don't know if i can drive on the road due to the accelerator sticking & not being inspected by jeep recall inspectors. Please help me... |
