Consumer Description

I'M NOT OF THAT SCARED OF STICKING GAS PEDALS KIND ON PERSON. JUST WANT TO FILE THIS INCIDENT TO PROBABLY HELP OTHERS TO AVOID PROBLEMS IN THE FUTURE. AFTER CAR BEING PARKED FOR THREE WEEKS AT AIRPORT WHEN FIRST STARTED IT I HAD AND ISSUE WITH THE STUCK GAS PEDAL. FORTUNATELY I WAS IN THE PARKING GEAR WHEN I FIRST PRESSED THE PEDAL, OTHERWISE COULD BE AN ACCIDENT ON THE PARKING LOT IF I WAS IN THE DRIVE GEAR. I JUST PULLED THE PEDAL BACK WITH MY TOE AND PRESSED AND PULLED IT COUPLE TIMES MORE BEFORE IT STARTED WORKING OK. BEFORE THAT I FELT IT LITTLE MUSHY AFTER LONG PARKING PERIODS ESPECIALLY IN THE RELATIVELY COLD DAYS IN GEORGIA AUTUMN/WINTER BUT IT WAS COMING AWAY AFTER DRIVING THE CAR DAILY. WHEN I GOT BACK HOME I RECTIFIED THE PROBLEM BY POURING SOME OIL IN THE THROTTLE CABLE JACKET AND LUBRICATED THE PEDAL AXIS AS WELL. HAD NO PROBLEMS SINCE THAN SO FAR. *TR
