Gas pedal sticks when accelerating and doesn't release when foot is removed causing unwanted acceleration. Pressing on brake does not help. Only way to get pedal to unstick is to hit it forceably with your foot sometimes several times before it will release. Floor mat has been removed and it didn't help situation. Gas pedal sticking and causing unwanted acceleration started happening every once and awhile here and there but has increased in frequency and is now happening everytime I drive the vehicle. I am concerned for my and my childrens safety as it has already caused a minor accident when I rear ended another driver because the car continued to accelerate after I removed my foot from gas pedal, but afraid it will cause a more serious accident in the future.
