| Description of the problem | I was driving on the interstate and when i got onto the exit ramp, the vehicle gas pedal stopped working and the check engine light came on along with flashing cruise control light. I coasted into a dealership with hazard lights on at about 10mph. Diagnosis was a faulty accelerator pedal sensor. This could have been very dangerous if i was in heavy traffic or still on the interstate. Car only has 53,000 miles on it. |
