NHTSA complaint #11002065, filed 2017-06, 20,000 miles

“As reported to dealer : customer states when accelerating in low gear and letting off the accelerator it will continue to maintain the RPM until you hit hard on the brakes. My added comments is that 1800 RPM when normal highway speed is over 60 MPH. In stop and go traffic the driver must maintain brake with left foot and gas with right foot or you will rear end the car in front of you. Ps dealer performed test and stated at this time compared to like units and they do the same thing. I test drove a new truck with same engine and trans. As mine and it did not do the same thing.”
