I HAVE NOTICED THAT THERE SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE ACCELERATOR ON MY 2006 PONTIAC SOLSTICE. WHEN I BEGIN TO SLOW DOWN TO STOP, THE ENGINE REVS UP FOR A FEW SECONDS EVEN WITH THE CLUTCH ENGAGED AND MY FOOT OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR. *NM
I WAS EXITING THE FREEWAY AFTER TRAVELING 65 MPH FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES. AS I COASTED UP THE EXIT RAMP W/CLUTCH IN AND FOOT OFF THE GAS THE CAR REVVED TO OVER 3000 RPMS. BY THE TIME I STOPPED AT THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE RAMP BY USING THE BRAKE THE CAR RETURNED TO IDLE AFTER A SECOND OR TWO. *AK
