Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Accelerator pedal requires excessive effort to move. this has resulted in several near accidents when my vehicle lurched forward upon the pedal un-sticking. most recent incident involved my wife, un-familier with the problem, having to stomp on the pedal while in heavy traffic on a rainy day. the result of the pedal un-sticking was that the vehicle lurched forward towards another vehicle. my wife barely avoided hitting another vehicle but only by swerving off of the road and into a ditch. our 6 year old son and 6 month old daughter was in the vehicle at the time.*ak
