Ask the Car Guy @socky Dec 17
What is your car trouble?
I want to give back to Steemit community and provide some help on something that I know very well. Cars and how to fix them.
Please ask me about your car issue. Won't go into gear. Strange sounds. Don't know if you should take your car in to the shop. Just ask.
Send me the make, model, and year along with car symptoms.
Please remember to VOTE and ReSteem

How to improve STEEM payment system:
My accelerator seemed to lose sponginess for a moment. It still seemed to work just not as much feedback. Any idea what that could be?
It's a 2016 RAM 1500.
Thanks, @socky!

Your truck uses a "Drive-by-Wire" system. This means that there is no throttle cable between your throttle pedal and the engine. Throttle pedal position is sensed at the pedal assembly and that information is sent to the computer. The computer then adds delays and then sends signals to control the throttle body.
The throttle pedal sensor is part of the gas pedal assembly. Your vehicle may need the gas pedal replaced.
Another problem could be the throttle body which houses the throttle control motor and the throttle position sensor.
It would be impossible to tell you which one is causing the problem without troubleshooting.
Check to see if any of this is under warranty.
