Acceleration Control

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The acceleration control consists of:

A fixed accelerator pedal.
An adjustable accelerator pedal.

The engine management system electronically operates the throttle of the engine in response to throttle pedal movements initiated by the driver. In the event of a system failure, the engine management system provides a "limp home" mode which allows the vehicle to be driven with limited performance.
