Consumer Description

POSSIBLE THROTTLE LINKAGE STICKING. I HAVE OWNED A 2000 MODEL YEAR FORD FOCUS, FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 YRS. IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS I HAVE HAD AT LEAST 3 OCCURRENCES WHERE THE VEHICLE'S ACCELERATION REMAINS AFTER RELEASING THE ACCELERATOR COMPLETELY, I HAVE RECURRED TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND PUMP THE PEDAL, THIS HAS SOLVED IT SO FAR, BUT I WILL HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED SOON. *TR
