Gas pedal sticks in Honda Pilot . Progressively worse since we bought the car new. Now sticks every time you press even while stopping at stop signs or lights. Thrusts forward. Tried to repair 4 times since 20k miles by replacing cleaning throttle body. Now 80k miles. Honda refuses to fix.
Our Pilot drive light started flashing one day, we pulled over, shut off the vehicle, then restarted it and the light went out. This has happened about 5 times over the past 3 years. Now our engine light came on and we found out that we need a new transmission! we have less than 100,000 mi. Also, our gas pedal sticks, to accelerate we take off extremely fast from a dead stop. I am afraid that this will cause an accident!!! it started out a little sticky and is now very bad.

I've been having problem with the sticky accelerator pedal since I purchased it. The first time that the problem occurred was at 19k miles. The accelerator pedal got so bad on the highway I had to pull to the right side to prevent from causing an accident because the accelerator pedal got stuck and it could not accelerate. The vehicle had to be towed to the dealership. I was informed that there is a problem with the throttle. The dealership replaced the throttle at least 5 times and also cleaned it but made it worst. The last time that the dealership replaced the throttle was in April 7, 2008 and again I am having the same problem. I've called the manufacturer and was informed that there really is not much they can do at this point. I refused to pay for something that is only a temporary fix and would like some resolution to the problem. It is obvious that there is a problem and I am asking for this to be recalled. My vehicle is not the only one that is having the same problem. I've gone to the Honda Pilot forum and read that I am not alone. I really am asking NHTSA to consider a recall for the Honda Pilot. Yes, I understand that I did not experience an accident nor injuries but I believe that a near accident should warrant a recall. Thank you!.
