Bottom of Throttle???

At the bottom of my gas peddle is a button. After I floor the gas peddle I push in like a black button behind the gas peddle? I thought I had WOT but then the button let's you go like 5% more. What is that???

Interesting. I've never used it. My car goes into some kind of safe mode after 50% throttle. Then I have to restart the car to get it back to normal. If I keep it under 50% throttle it drives just fine. Never taken it past 50% throttle since I've had it, it won't let me =*(

Your throttle position sensor/accelerator pedal probably needs replacing.
