Consumer Description

AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE IT HAS TO BE WARMER UP FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES OR MORE, IN ORDER FOR THE GAS PEDAL TO PRESS DOWN SO THE VEHICLE WILL MOVE. THE GAS PEDAL WILL NOT MOVE AT ALL. IT HAS TO BE WARMED UP IN THE SUMMER MONTHS AND WELL AS THE WINTER MONTHS IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO MOVE. THE GAS PEDAL IS SO HARD TO PRESS THAT IT LIKE TRYING TO PRESS YOUR FOOT THROUGH A BRICK WALL. IT DOES THIS EVEN WHEN AT A STAND STILL WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATOR FOR ANY SPEED. IT JUST WILL NOT MOVE. THIS IS DANGEROUS FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. PLEASE HELP !!! *TR
