VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
FUEL THROTTLE BODY-IT SEEMS THAT THE GAS PEDAL IS HARD TO PUSH. WHEN WE SPOKE WITH THE CHEVROLET DEALER ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, ALL THEY WOULD SAY IS THAT THEY ARE AWARE THAT IT MIGHT BE A PROBLEM, BUT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. BUT THEY WOULD BE HAPPY TO CHECK IT FOR US FOR A NOMINAL SUM OF $150.00 PLUS ANY PARTS. IF THIS WAS LISTED ON A SERVICE ADVISORY, BUT AS YET I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY RECALL. THIS IS A ONGOING PROBLEM, TODAY I HAD TO PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK AND LITERALLY STOMP ON THE GAS PEDAL MORE THAN 6 TIMES BEFORE IT WOULD FINALLY BREAK LOOSE AND RELEASE. I REFER TO YOUR TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS 000604007 # 126 AND 000604007B, #191. *NLM
