Consumer Description

SINCE PURCHASING THE TRUCK IN JANUARY OF 2020 I'VE NOTICED A SERIOUS DELAY IN TIME FROM WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS ENGAGED TO WHEN THE THROTTLE RESPONDS. THIS IS ESPECIALLY NOTICEABLE WHEN THE TRUCK HAS NOT BEEN RUNNING FOR MORE THAN 10 MINUTES. I ASSUME SINCE THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT IT WAS OCCURRING BEFORE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. ONE OF MY COWORKERS WHO DRIVES THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL ALSO HAS THE SAME ISSUE.
