This vehicle will not slow down, when I let foot off of the accelerator.
Vehicle hesitated to accelerate when the gas pedal was depressed from a stop position. Intermittently this failure occurred while driving.

Dealership serviced the vehicle several times, and performed a diagnostic test, in which no failure code was found. But the failure recurred.
