Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Accelerator pedal began sticking. i could not raise the pedal up or press it down. suddenly, car would take off. this happens at any time during driving. i have taken the car back to dealership twice for the same problem, all within 6 months time. i feel this is a safety issue with the vehicle. i was told it was carbon build up on the throttle body. i feel it is an issue with the tribute, other cars do not have this issue. all they did was clean the throttle body both times. they also said it was not covered under warranty although they did not charge me for the work done. i am leary about driving my car since i never know when it will start sticking again. *jb
