problem #1

May 022003

Sentra

  • 43,000 miles
The accelerator pedal sticks. As a result when taking off after a stop, the consumer had to apply more pressure to the pedal. The part has been replaced three times. However problem still exists. (throttle plate stuck) the problem never seemed to be corrected. The consumer would have to forcibly press down on the gas pedal, after putting the vehicle into first gear, from reverse. The seat belt did not retract and the gas pedal felt as if it were binding.
