| I WAS TRAVELING AT A RATE OF 65 ON THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE OVER TO THE LEFT HAND SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY. THE WRENCH SYMBOL DISPLAYED ON THE DASH. I TURNED THE CAR OFF, TURNED ON HAZARD LIGHTS. I WAITED A FEW MINUTES STARTED THE CAR UP AND WAS ABLE TO TRAVEL TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY CODES P2111 P2112. THE THROTTLE BODY WAS REPLACED AND THE VEHICLE APPEARS TO BE RUNNING WELL NOW. THIS WAS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN.
