Year2006 make/modelchrysler pacifica mileageabout 99,000 driving for 13+ years; had been getting check engine and ABS signs on dashboard now and then for about 6 years; in humid days recurrences were more than in colds. Va inspection, both emission and safety, passed every year, last one being in july 2019, without any issue. Since late july ABS sign ceased to appear any more, and check engine light is appearing steadily. In diagnostics p0700, p0732 and p0720 codes were returned. Now a days, when I come to a stop/red light, on full brake, engine makes a jerk, and speedometer reading jumps from 0 to 20 MPH. Also, break pedal experiences a push-back, causing tendency to drive forward. Over 30 MPH gas pedal demands more compression, and engine motion roaring also surges, no rattling. What kind of risk I am carrying in driving the vehicle, what are my options, cost for remedy and is it worth to invest in fixing the problem(s)?

My gas pedal sticks. When I turn on my car to back out of a parking spot the pedal will not move unless I push down hard on it. To avoid hitting cars backing out or parking lots you have to use force on the pedal to move the car and it jerks forward fast with no control other than to hold your foot over the brake at the same time so you do not accelerate into a vehicle.

The gas pedal sticks on this vehicle when trying to accelerate. When the car does finally start moving forward it "jerks" forward rapidly. This has occurred when pulling out of park & also when trying to pull out into traffic. From researching it on the internet it seems to be a common issue related to the throttle body.

Motor mounts replaced, tie rods replaced, control arms replaced all done in the last month !! Why doesn't chrysler have a recall out on this issues since it's known for it!
