Gas pedal is stuck Inspection Service

Assuming the linkage between the throttle pedal and the engine is unobstructed (something you can check visually by checking around the gas pedal or floor mat for foreign objects that may be obstructing the path of the gas pedal), a sticky gas pedal is almost always due to accumulation of unwanted goo at the throttle body. This makes the action of opening and closing the throttle a notchy, imprecise operation.

Common reasons for this to happen:

  • Throttle body is stuck
  • Gas pedal sensor malfunction
  • Accelerator cable broken
  • Accelerator pedal return spring broken

What to expect:

A top-rated mobile mechanic will come to your home or office to determine the cause of the stuck gas pedal, and will then provide a detailed inspection report that includes the scope and cost of the necessary repairs.

How important is this service?

A stuck gas pedal presents a potentially dangerous situation and should be inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible.

Honda Accord L4-2.3L - Gas pedal is stuck - San Mateo, California
Whitney comes off as a friend who really cares about your safety. There are many things wrong with my car, me being a clueless non-know-how, and he quickly determined which problems needed to be dealt with first, starting with the root of the problem and explaining why things were wrong. He was careful, thorough, fast to think, and handy. I would definitely choose Whitney again next time.
