Hi, my name is\*\*\*\*\* to justanswer. I will be assisting you with your question this evening.
I am sorry that you are having difficulties with your vehicle and will do my best to help.
There is a $5 charge to answer your question which I assume you already paid to get this far. If you choose a phone call, that will be an additional charge. I would rather continue chatting online in case I need to send diagrams and schematics.
So, just to clarify, when the gas pedal is pressed the car will not move and accelerate? Are there any warning lights illuminated on the dash?
**\*\*As far as phone calls, If you didn't request it, it is most likely the Website prompting you, not me. A Live Call is a "Premium Service" and will cost more money. I prefer communicating via this site, but in some cases a phone call may be recommended.\*\***

Okay, good. I would suggest getting somewhere safe before it happens again and then making an appointment with your local repair shop to have it checked out.
Best of luck with your vehicle, and thanks for using justanswer.
