VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:ACCELERATOR PEDAL
THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, WITHIN THE FIRST COUPLE INCHES OF ITS TRAVEL, STICKS SO THAT WHEN YOU TRY TO GENTLY ACCELERATE, YOU ARE FORCED TO APPLY EXCESSIVE PRESSURE TO GET PAST THE "STICKING POINT" CAUSING THE CAR TO CHARGE FORWARD. DEALER HAS ALREADY REMOVED CARBON DEPOSITS FROM THROTTLE BODY (1/11/01), BUT PROBLEM IS NOW BACK AND IS SLOWLY GETTING WORSE. I AM CONCERNED THAT UNINTENDED ACCELERATION AND/OR LOSS OF CONTROL COULD RESULT FROM THIS PROBLEM. *AK
