Accelerator pedal sticks. The consumer took the vehicle to the dealer and was informed the vehicle had a contaminated fuel system which would cost $170 and it would include cleaning the injectors. After not being able to get in touch with the customer service rep that the consumer spoke with previously who said the work should be performed at no charge, the consumer went to a friend and all he did was remove the air intake hose from the front of the throttle body and sprayed some cleaning agent and wiped around the butterfly valve, which resolved the problem.

Throttle sticking right off idle. Very hard to depress accelerator pedal. Truck "leaps" when pedal finally "frees-up". has happened several times. Took vehicle to dealer...dealer unaware of any bulletin to repair properly. Dealer ran injector cleaner through the fuel system and replace fuel filter. This did not fix the problem...dealer did not repair according to the service bulletin available.

I was traveling westbound on state route 262 at approximately 32 miles per hour when I encountered a stopped vehicle. I applied the brakes and the vehicle began an initial brake and then lurched forward without my releasing my foot from the brake pedal. This caused me to strike the vehicle in front of me. The air bags did not deploy nor did the seat belt properly restrain me. This caused me to strike the steering wheel with my chest and stomach. The hamilton county police office documented that the air bags and the seatbelt did not properly function. I was sited for following to close even though I feel that the brakes failed. I plan to appeal the ticket due to this reasoning in court on November 29, 2001. The safey of other owners/drivers of these vehicles is what prompted me to write. I would like to know if there have been other failures. Please send them to my E-mail address: Mbrusman@cinergy.com thanks for your time and attention with this matter.

I was informed by my dealer that this is a common problem with this model & is caused by carbon building up in the throttle body which causes the throttle to seize. I was told by the dealer that this problem began with the 1999 models & has continued until the present model. It is defective, has been for years, they are aware of it, & they don't care. They reccommend that & have the throttle body cleaned out about every 4000 miles at my own expense, even tho it is still under warranty. They say this is a service matter & the warranty doesn't cover normal service. What a rip off!

Set cruise @ 67mph level ground (apporx 1900rpm) run for ~10-15 mins. Go up sufficient grade for cc to force downshift to next lower gear and increase in RPM to 3000+. upon cresting hill and going down gradual downgrade the vehicle will upshift but the cruise control will reset its setpoint to ~ 4-5 mph greater than original. Subsequent hills will keep repeating until test terminated above 75mph. Repeatabiloity is variable based upon grades of subsequent inclines. First reset to +4 mph is consistent.
