Reported risk: On certain vehicles the accelerator pedal movement may become rough, slow to return, or stick in a depressed position. This problem is caused by either wear or high humidity and could result in a loss of control leading to a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install a steel reinforcement bar to the accelerator pedal assembly. With this reinforcement in place, the excess friction that can cause the pedal to stick is eliminated.
