Consumer Description
TRUCK HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE GAS PEDAL AT TIMES FROM A START THE TRUCK DOES NOT IMMEDIATELY RESPOND TO INPUT BY THE RIGHT FOOT. ALSO, IF ACCELERATING AND THEN YOU TAKE PRESSURE OFF TO RE PRESS THE PEDAL TO GO IT DOES NOT RESPOND FOR A 1-2 SECOND OR SO PERIOD. THIS PROBLEM IS REPEATABLE AT ANY TIME BY DOING WHAT WAS STATED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHERE AS IF THE DRIVER NEEDS IMMEDIATE ACCELERATION TO GET OUT OF A POSSIBLE COLLISION AND THERES NOT RESPONSE FROM THE INPUT PLACED ON THE PEDAL IT COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I HAVE OWNED 7 DODGE VEHICLES, AN 02 RAM, 04 RAM, 05 GCARAVAN, 09 RAM, 17 DURANGO, AND THE 15 RAM 2500, OUT OF ALL THE VEHICLES I HAVE OWNED NONE OF THEM HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE. ALL OF THEM BUT THE 02 HAVE THE ELECTRIC FLY BY WIRE THROTTLE SYSTEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY FCA IMMEDIATELY! IT IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE FOR THE LAST FEW MODEL YEARS. DO PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE TO CORRECT? THIS HAPPENS ON MY TRUCK DAILY WHILE DRIVING. SPEED IS NOT DEPENDENT IS WHEN YOU TAKE PRESSURE OF THE PEDAL FOR A SECOND OR WHEN AT A STOP AND ACCELERATING.
