Your gas pedal may feel sluggish when you press it, and occasionally it may not respond at all (dead pedal). This delay in throttle response creates a safety concern when you need to accelerate into traffic, and in some cases your vehicle may stall, potentially putting you in a dangerous situation. There's a known technical service bulletin (TSB T-SB-0166-10) related to this issue. The fix will likely involve inspecting and possibly replacing or reprogramming the throttle control system components.
