My gas pedal sticks. When I turn on my car to back out of a parking spot the pedal will not move unless I push down hard on it. To avoid hitting cars backing out or parking lots you have to use force on the pedal to move the car and it jerks forward fast with no control other than to hold your foot over the brake at the same time so you do not accelerate into a vehicle.
