Your right, it was $12.35 at our dealer. They had one in stock, so I got them to hold it for me until Thursday. Hopefully I will have enough smarts to replace it myself.

Like a fool, I drove the car again today and it was hard to press most of the time... one time it even got stuck when I was on a rural 4-lane highway accelerating up a grade... when I leveled out and let off of the accelerator pedal, it didnt come up. Quick thinking, I had to turn the cars ignition off and ease off onto the side of the highway, then onto a low-traveled side road and then pull the pedal up with my foot, then restarted the car and went on my back, but carefully. I vowed then that I would not drive it again until this was replaced. Thankfully I was on a straight-stretch with no traffic and not some curve or in town. I didnt know it would get stuck down, but it did. Anyone having pedal problems should get them replaced ASAP without delay.
