Are your battery terminals loose? They tend to stretch over time, and may require replacement.
The throttle issue is related, the drive by wire system gets confused when power us intermittent.
Also check the ground strap.

I checked the battery posts and made sure everything was tight. I'm just lost as to what could be going on. The hesitation when pressing the accelerator is what confuses me.
14VDC static is a bit highJguy26 wrote:Thanks guys but how could I check this throttle issue? We were getting 14VDC on the battery without the terminals on it. Could that cause the hesitation when the gas pedal is pressed? By the way, this just started happening. Never had any previous issues whatsoever. Thanks for all the replies guys!

I don't have any confidence in dealerships, particularly on an advisory level.Jguy26 wrote:What I am understanding from the guy working on it is that it cranks right up when the fuse is replaced. it's when he turns it off and tries to crank up again the fuse blows. I'll have to find out what other circuits share the starter fuse. Could a dealer tell me this information?
