The gas pedal stuck while driving, the car would only idle and not move. The car was in traffic and almost hit by another vehicle. On a prior date the gas pedal stuck and would not move, car just idled in a parking lot for about five minutes. This wasn't first time it stuck, but prior times it always released right away.
The problem is with the gas pedal, its hard to press/accelerate and sometimes when I press/accelerate from a stop and at speeds of 30 mph, it gets stuck and I have to put it in neutral. Very dangerous situation.
Driving the car in cold weather the throttle would stick for the first couple of miles until the car was warmed up. This is a 4cyl. Auto trans. / same type of vehicle as Ford escape.
