Recently reported VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL problems on 2005 Chrysler Pacifica

This is an old story. 2005 chrysler pasifica. i adjusted (move forward) accel and brake pedal position by electric position adjustment system. then i went to a highway (i94, mi), my car did not speed at all. very slow. so, i could not follow the flow of other vehicle, i was almost be crashed. i immediately quit from the highway and checked the pedals. the reason of the issue was poor stroke of the pedals. in case of pacifica, when we move the pedals forward more than middle position, moving range of the accel pedal was reduced less than half because the pedal hit on the floor. also, this problem causes auto cruise system problem. because the pedal can not move more than half of its range, the system can not pull the pedal correctly. then the vacuum hose drops out from the line. my vehicle suddenly slow down when the problem occurred. i went to chrysler service center and they reconnect the vacuum hose again. i am sure this is a design error and should be improved immediately. maybe recall. *tr

I have had several incidents of the accelerator pedal sticking. i have taken it into the dealer with no results. i have e-mailed chrysler and they tell me to take it to the dealer. with the recent toyota accelerator pedal problems, i am concerned that others are experiencing the same problems. i see one other in your records. *tr

Accelerator sticks in idle position. the problem is continuous once engine reaches operating temperature. occasionally accelerator sticks requiring very heavy foot pressure to break loose causing the vehicle to lurch forward. *jb
