Reported on Jan 02, 2014
| DRIVING ON A WINDING, MOUNTAINOUS ROAD THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND WAS NOT RESPONSIVE TO THE ACCELERATOR. THERE WAS NO SHOULDER, SO I KEPT GOING, VERY SLOWLY, AND THEN IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATING RESPONSIVENESS, ONLY TO LOSE POWER AGAIN. THIS CONTINUED FOR THE 4 MILES IT TOOK FOR ME TO GET HOME. I HOPED IT WAS SOME BAD GAS AND WAS A ONE-TIME EVENT - UNTIL IT HAPPENED AGAIN, AND I WAS AGAIN ABLE TO GET HOME. I AM NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. | |
