problem #1

Nov 142004

9-3 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 45,000 miles
While accelerating from 60 mph on the highway, the accelerator pedal became stuck. This caused the vehicle to accelerate up to 80 mph before the consumer was able to reach down while driving and lift the accelerator pedal by hand. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and they informed the consumer that the carpet caused the accelerator pedal to stick. The consumer did not agree with the dealers evaluation. The consumer lifted the accelerator off of the floor and indicated that he would have had to remove the carpet first if it was in the way. Only the accelerator was stuck.
