Car felt a bit weird these 2 days

Hi guys,mine is a 2006 3.5L engine,and odo just hit about 500 today.Since yesterday,I felt that the gas pedal became kinda heavy and the car tend to lose speed very fast after I release the gas pedal,like it would come to a stop faster than before on the plain roads.And when I spin the wheels,no light came up on the dash,not even the skid light,nothing.Is this normal or something wrong with the car? I am kinda worried though it's just my new demo
thanx guys!

Hi tomcaca, welcome to the board, and enjoy your great car! That sounds uncharacteristic of the car, I've never experienced that. Try the reset of the electronic throttle prescribed in other posts, Throttle calibration. If that doesn't work, than see if you can recreate it cause you know that if you take it to dealer service first thing they will want to do is try to experience what you did. Also check none of the spark plug cables are loose.

I have the 300c, and i have a hate-love realtionship with it. Sometimes it handles like a 80 thousand dollar car sometimes it feels like ur driving a kia (no offense to anyone) it feels as if the car has its own personality...
