Accelerator pedal stops working

Kia Sorento 2017 2.4 20000 miles
Accelerator pedal stops working shortly after pulling away. Engine does not stall but stays at idle. Pedal recovers when I let up and press pedal again. Sometimes pedal recovers if pedal is kept at same pressure. This problem happens occasional, like weeks or days apart. Had vehicle to dealer twice however tech. Could not repeat problem.

I have to give gas for the car to start

Kia Sorento 2013 Sorento 123000 miles
When turning the key I have to give gas for it to start. Had the fuel pump replaced 6 months ago helped for a month or 2 then started doing it again. Otherwise drives well but when j turn on AC runs rough, which may be a different issue. But why do I have to press the gas pedal for it to start?
