Consumer Description

THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL STICKS AT REST AND HAS TO BE PUSHED VERY HARD TO BREAK IT LOOSE; THIS CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO LUNGE FORWARD. I HAVE COME VERY CLOSE TO HAVING AN ACCIDENT SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I TALKED TO SEVERAL PEOPLE WITH THIS SAME YEAR AND MODEL TRUCK AND THEY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I CALLED MY DEALER TO SEE IF A RECALL HAD BEEN ISSUED ON THIS AND WAS TOLD NO. A TECHNICAL BULLETIN HAS BEEN ISSUED BY THE MANUFACTURER REGARDING THIS PROBLEM (THE DEALER DIDN'T TELL ME THIS) AND I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL RATHER THAN A BULLETIN.*AK
