I WAS DRIVING 45 MPH ON THE FREEWAY, WHEN MY GAS PEDAL WENT DOWN ON ITS OWN AS IF I WANTED TO SPEED UP. A FEW MINUTES LATER IT DID THE SAME THING, BUT THIS TIME THE GAS PEDAL STUCK. I PUT MY 4-WAY FLASHERS ON, TRIED BRAKING AND PUT MY RIGHT FOOT UNDER THE PEDAL TO TRY AN "LOOSEN IT". IT FINALLY "UNLOCKED" AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE NORMALLY. IT WAS NOT MY FLOOR MATS IN THE WAY EITHER, BECAUSE I CHECKED THAT. AFTER RESEARCHING OVER THE WEEKEND IT LOOKS LIKE THERE HAVE BEEN 295 HONDA COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO INVESTIGATE THIS AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM, BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SEVERELY INJURED OR KILLED? A FEW YEARS AGO THE TOYOTA PRIUS HAD AN ISSUE WITH THIS. MAYBE YOU SHOULD TALK WITH THEM.
