Accelerator Stuck Problems of GMC Yukon

When the gas pedal is depressed fully, the gas pedal sticks the car continues accelerating. The problem began with initial complete depression of gas pedal to cause some acceleration and depressing brake allowed vehicle to return to normal driving. The problem has worsened over time to the point where both feet depressing on the brake pedal did not affect acceleration and caused smoke to emit from both front brake pads, and the passenger front brake pad flamed up from the heat. The car was driven into a parking lot with the brake depressed the entire time, and turned off. So far, this has only happened when the gas pedal is fully depressed. The dealer told me the mat caused this even though the mat is cut around the gas pedal with plenty of room to not obstruct pedal. The mat also does not slide or move about the area. The GMC dealer told me they took the mat out and did not notice any auto acceleration, and they told me they were unable to depress the gas pedal full to attempt to recreate the problem, to not compromise the safety of the other cars nearby.

Driving at roughly 50 mph. Went to pass car on two lane highway. Accelerator stuck to floor (not stuck on floor mat or other object). Vehicle accelerated to 95 mph, slowed to 70 with brake depressed fully. Slowed to 50 with brake and emergency brake depressed. Accelerated when downshifted into manual. Finally put in neutral and was able to stop. Had complained of rough idle, stalling and reduced power for 3 years (since we had car for only a few months). See some discussion that a dirty throttle body could lead to all of these problems. 3 years with 3 different gm service shops and no solution. Fortunately the road was not crowded and was straight. Obviously, this could have been a fatal problem for us. It was my wife, myself, and our three children under 4 years of age in the vehicle.

Accelerator throttle sticks and requires excessive force to require the vehicle to move and each time causes vehicle surge.
