GAS PEDAL IS STUCK

Fuel/Propulsion System · Vehicle Speed Control
The gas pedal would stick intermittently, and more pressure needed to be applied to the pedal in order to get the car to accelerate. At one point the gas pedal completely stuck, and i was not able to accelerate the car at all on the highway, forcing me to pull the car over to the side of the road and turn it off to be towed. A mechanic was able to confirm this issue is caused by a malfunction in the throttle body.…

The gas pedal continuously sticks or locks in position after i have stopped either to make a left turn or right turn. This is very dangerous, especially when i am making a left turn and there is usually on coming traffic. I am very nervous to make left turns for this reason. Someone will get killed or seriously injured due to this issue. *tr

When the temperature outside is below 32 degrees, the gas pedal sticks. This occurs when you attempt to accelerate. This is dangerous if you are pulling out into traffic. Once the pedal sticks, sometimes if you stomp on it, it will release. They have recalled 2001-2004 escape for this issue. Ford is not acknowledging this issue for the 2007 escape. *tr
