The accelerator stuck, and consumer was not able to stop the vehicle. Consumer left the vehicle, and contacted the manufacturer. They had the vehicle towed, supposedly repaired, but consumer was not satisfied. Because consumer have no brakebrakes he had to use the emergency brake which slowed the car down enough to put it in park while moving, then he shut off the ignition. This vehicle came with no clips on the kick panel.
