Consumer Description

"DEAD PEDAL" STARTED OUT FROM A STOP LIGHT AND WAS STARTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN WITH A 8000 POUND TRAILER GOT TO ABOUT 5 MPH SOMEONE PULLED OUT AND WANTED TO COME STRAIGHT THREW THE LIGHT FROM THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION I WAS GOING ! I LET OFF THE THROTTLE THEN DECIDED I HAD ENOUGH ROOM TO MAKE IT AND WHEN I GOT BACK ON THE THROTTLE IT WAS LIKE I DIDN'T PUSH THE THROTTLE. THE TRUCK JUST SAT THERE FOR 1 OR 2 SECONDS TILL IT STARTED TO MOVE ! THIS HAS HAPPENED QUITE A FEW TIMES SINCE ! DOES NOT MATTER IF THE TRUCK IS LOADED OR EMPTY ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS START ON THE THROTTLE LET OFF OF IT AND GET BACK ON THE THROTTLE AND IT DIES FOR A FEW SECONDS !! *TR
