At first this problem only occured occasionally, but it has recently become more serious.

My gas pedal sticks all the time. It won't push down. I am unable to press it at all and, therefore, my truck won't go. This is a problem, as you can imagine, especially when in the middle of intersections or on the boat ramp.

The only way I can make it press down is to stomp on it really hard. What is causing this? Does anybody know what I should do? Thanks.

 

Start by inspecting the cable; both under the hood AND under the dash. There have been recalls for bad cables; call your local dealer with your VIN & have them check for outstanding recalls. Most recalls are free forever.

Also check for the floor mat or anything else getting under the pedal, or anything binding against the throttle lever.
