While driving at any speed the consumer is having problems with the throttle cable which is causing the pedal to stick, and when applying the accelerator the vehicle isn't getting any speed. There was no prior warning. *akthe vehicle experienced total loss of the throttle almost causing an accident, the problem with vehicle was recall but the consumes vehicle was not included in recall due to VIN. The vehicle vibrates while braking due to warped rotors, the right front seatbelt was twisted, front brake pads were replaced.
