1999 NISSAN QUEST Complaints

ACCELERATOR PEDAL STICKS - THIS HAPPENS AFTER THE BRAKE IS APPLIED AND I TRY TO ACCELERATE, THUS CAUSING THE VAN TO STALL IN THE INTERSECTION AND THEN TAKE OFF QUICKLY AND ALSO OCCURS IF I RELAESE MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR TO SLOW DOWN GRADUALLY, AND THEN REAPPLY IT, THE PEDAL AGAIN STICKS. THIS STARTED IN MARCH AND THEN WENT AWAY FOR A MONTH AND HAS BEEN OCCURING DAILY - SOMETIMES 4 OR 5 TIMES IN ONE COMMUTE. THIS HAS NEARLY CAUSED A FEW FATAL ACCIDENTS WHEN THE VAN STALLED IN A BUSY INTERSECTION OR WHILE I WAS TURNING INTO THE DRIVEWAY AND GAS PEDAL STUCK CAUSING CROSSTRAFFIC TO SCREECH TO A HALT. HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND BECAUSE THE VAN DOES NOT ACCELEARTE AFTER A RED LIGHT - HAVE TO PUMP IT OR HOLD IT DOWN BEFORE IT RELEASES. I CALLED DEALER AND HE SAID IT WAS "NORMAL" AND PART OF THROTTLE PROBLEM, BUT THIS STARTED WHEN THE VAN HAD ONLY 20000 MILES ON IT

PROBLEM MANIFEST ITSELF AS A "STICKING" GAS PEDAL. THJIS IS A PROBLEM THAT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. INFORMED THAT THROTTLE BODY ACCUMULATES CARBON. IS THERE ANY OTHER INFORMATION REGARDING THIS PROBLEM. *AK
