Anyone own one that had experienced the gas pedal issue?

Are these cars a manual/mechanical system, or drive by wire type deal? Cant find much info out there, other then "they dont know what is causing the issue".

That seems a bit off to me.

Just curious - so I thought I would ask the car guys....
