Consumer Description

SEVERAL TIMES, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WOULD STICK TO THE POINT THAT I COULD STAND ON IT AND IT WOULD NOT BUDGE. IT HAPPENS MOST FREQUENTLY IN COLDER WEATHER BUT THE TEMPERATURE OF THE CAR HAS NO EFFECT. THERE IS NO REAL PATTERN TO WHEN IT WON'T WORK. FORD RECOMMENDED REPLACING THE THROTTLE BODY, HOWEVER AFTER RESEARCHING, THE THROTTLE BODY IS NOT SOMETHING THAT IS NORMALLY REPLACED AT THIS MILEAGE. *TR
