Jeep Sudden Acceleration - Not Just Toyota!

Jeep Grand Cherokee Sudden Acceleration (Not Just Toyota!). Chrysler, referring to their own Sudden Acceleration Defect (the one they deny) and the Toyota Tacoma Sudden Acceleration issue on their blog Chrysler calls these claims "basless" and basically saying Sudden Acceleration is NOT possible blaming floormats and drivers although Chrysler has had over 500 Jeep Grand Cherokee Sudden Acceleration complaints. <br /> <br /> On "NON" Drive by Wire JGC's with this problem, it is believed to be TPS, IAC related (which each can cause engine to race) or even possibly Cruise Control Related. Years ago Chrysler did issue a recall for "Some" JGC's for TPS issues causing "high idle". In an investigative story some time ago a mechanic proved that even with CC off by simply shorting a wire (simulating an internal short) that this can cause sudden throttle application. <br /> <br /> Love or hate Toyota The difference between Toyota and Chrysler is that Toyota is taking responsibility and could have just blamed the customer like Chrysler.
