After driving 5 or 10 minutes vehicle lost power and stalled. Consumer contacted the manufacturer, and had taken it to dealer on several occasions. But problem recurred. Vehicle was under warranty. However, the warranty did not cover the problems of the vehicle, and consumer had to pay out of pocket. The consumer had little control of the vehicle's steering while driving. Antifreeze leaked from the vehicle. The engine flooded and stall. The vehicle ran rough prior to reaching 75 mph. Occasionally the serpentine belt ran crooked on the pulley and broke. The exhaust system leaked. The fuel tank was not properly fitted to the holders. The transmission leaked fluid.

I went to pass another vehicle and depressed the accelerator to the floor and as I completed passing the accelerator stuck in the wide open throttle position. Since I was accelerating wide open throttle with no control I decided to turn the ignition off but in the process lost power steering and brakes. At this time the vehice I passed nearly rear ended me. I was finally able to pull off the road. I opened the hood and was able to free the cable mechanism back to idle position. Something in this cable mechanism is sticking/binding and the return spring isn't string enough to pop it back. Let me know if I can be of further assistance. Apparently the diesel version has been recalled but the V-10 has not. It appears the V-10 also suffers from this stuck accelerator problem.

Attn frank borris. Upon pushing throttle to wot the cable stuck. I noticed the pedal wouldn't return at about 35 mph. I reached 80-90mph before hitting the brakes. At 40 mph I put the engine in neutral and turned the ignition off. I lost steering and my power brakes and went into a ditch. I suffered no injuries and my truck suffered no serious damage. I managed to free the cable and return to home with caution and low throttle. I replaced the cable (which Dodge had in stock). When I took the old one out I noticed the cable frayed inside the sheath. I had noticed prior to this incident (thanks to the other members of the tdr) the cable started to fray near the ball cup at the end. I cut off a broken strand at the ball cup. I couldn't notice the broken strands in the sheath at that time. I'm sending the cable (via frank borris) for your further investigation.

While driving the cruise control will stay on and when driver attempts to press on the gas pedal vehicle will not stop. This is while the cruise control is on.. consumer states the cruise control somehow activates on its own and when attempting to slow down by letting off the accelerator it will not, due to cruise control setting on its own.
