Description of the problem | The gas pedal is occasionally unresponsive, and will not make the truck accelerate like it should. It causes a definite "pause" in the acceleration of the truck, although it is only noticeable once the truck is already moving. It is most noticeable when you let off the pedal, and then reapply it, passing in traffic for example. Because of the hesitation, i have come much closer to a collision while merging than normal. |
