| Description of the problem | The vehicle did not respond properly to the driver pressing the accelerator. When the driver attempted to drive the vehicle after it had been parked for a few hours, with no problems previously, the vehicle would barely accelerate. The vehicle felt very sluggish and even with the accelerator fully pressed it would not exceed 25 mph. The driver pulled the vehicle over and turned off the vehicle and turned it back on but this did not immediately resolved the issue. The driver drove the vehicle for a few blocks to a safer parking location and turned off the vehicle again to better inspect the vehicle. There were no warnings on the instrument panel and no obvious signs of mechanical issues. The driver restarted the vehicle and attempted to drive it again the issue did not re-appear. This vehicle had not yet been inspected by the dealership since the incident but could have resulted in a tragic collision and needs to be addressed. |
