On certain AWD vehicles, the accelerator pedal may temporarily become stuck in the partially depressed position due to inadequate clearance between the pedal linkage and a plastic pad embedded into the vehicle's carpet. This condition may interfere with the accelerator pedal returning to the idle position. Unwanted acceleration could result in a vehicle crash without prior warning. Correction: Dealers will replace the acceleration pedal assembly and modify the carpet.
