| Component | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:ACCELERATOR PEDAL |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | The physical pedal seems to stick when pressure is reduced (slowing or decelerating) but pops free once most of the pressure has been released. This has happened several times in the past year and a half. I did not return it to the dealer, instead i was able to remove the pedal assembly and apply several drops of wd40 to the pivot shaft and bushing. After working the pedal a few times and re-installing back into the vehicle, the pedal seemed to operate normally for up to 4 to 5 months before starting to stick once more. Note: the vehicle never accelerated on its own nor did the pedal not return to the idle position. |
