Consumer Description

I WAS TRAVELING AT 60 AND TOOK MY FOOT OFF GAS TO DECELERATE AND CAR WOULDN'T GO LESS THAN 50. ENGINE RPM'S WOULDN'T GO BELOW 2500. I COULD STILL STOP CAR WITH BRAKES BUT THIS APPEARS TO BE A CONSTANT PROBLEM AND NOT INTERMITTENT LIKE THE PERSON REPORTED A FEW DAYS AGO. I CHECKED THE THROTTLE LINKAGE BECAUSE I THOUGHT THE NON FUNCTIONING CRUISE CONTROL COULD BE AFFECTING ENGINE SPEED BUT NEITHER CABLE KEPT THE FLAP FROM BOTTOMING OUT. *TR
