To whom it may concern. We bought a new 2000 model year Honda Accord in Nov. 1999. At 22k miles (may-July 2001), the gas pedal git stuck when the car was not used for a while, like first thing in the morning. We had to step on it hard and released quickly. Then it was good for the rest of the day. We report this to the dealer (leith Honda). They fixed it and I have the report. A few months ago this problem re-occured. We have about 44k miles now. Leith Honda charged me $85 to fix it. They did not charge us the first time. Their reason is that my car is out of warranty and this sticky gas pedal problem is caused by gasoline. They further claimed that all other vehicles have the same problem because of the gasoline. They told me that I have to bring the car it and clean the throttle body on a regular basis. Otherwise this sticky gas pedal problem will continue to occur. I have so many car in the last 25 years and never heard of this kind of news. I am very concerned about the safety caused by the sticky gas pedal. What would you recommend me to do to fix the problem? I have names of the service manager and mechanic who performed the "cleaning". I also have report on hand which show the "repair" work. Please contact me if you need more info and fact. Thanks for your looking into this matter. Best ragards, kien.
Consumer states when vehicle is first started in the morning the accelertor pedal is restricted from moving without extreme pressure and then vehicle jumps. Dealer notified. Please provide additional information.
Accelerator pedal (gas pedal) "sticks" when starting the car in the morning or after periods when the car is not used. Excessive amount of foot force needs to applied which results in high rpm (and quick jerk from stop if car is in drive) after pedal depresses. Dealer has been contacted, they offered no assistance and did not refer us to any other source for warranty help.
