2007 Chrysler 300C - experienced three (3) separate incidents of accelerator failure. Accelerator would not functioning when pressed down. All three incidents occurred in cold weather spread out over 18 month time span. Engine was still running but accelerator would not function. Chrysler dealer checked out vehicle but could not find an error code, was unable to duplicate problem and ended up taking no corrective action. Each time I had to pull over to the side of the road, turn off and restart the engine to clear the problem. The car worked fine again after restarting. Fortunately each incident occurred at low speed and was controllable. Problem would be very serious if it occur during attempt to accelerate into high speed traffic such as an interstate on ramp.
