Each time you stop and then push on the gas pedal it sticks. You must push harder than usual to get the car to move. But that makes the car lurch forward at a greater speed than you would like. In traffic this is very dangerous. The dealer said it was the fuel injectors, but I think it, S in the linkage or the way the pedal was made that is the cause of the problem.
