Reported on July 03, 2013
| WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THE CAR WENT AN IDLE SPEED FORCING ME TO GET OFF OF THE FREEWAY AT REDUCED SPEED. TRIED TO RESTART CAR SEVERAL TIMES. WOULD ONLY IDLE ROUGH. LET IT SIT 1/2 HOUR WAITING FOR AAA RAN OK AFTER ANOTHER RESTART. REPEATED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE. ONCE I WAS STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF A TRAFFIC CONTROLLED INTERSECTION. WAS TOLD I NEED A NEW THROTTLE BODY AND THEY ARE BACK ORDERED COULD TAKE 6 WEEKS BEFORE ONE WOULD BE AVAILABLE BECAUSE OF LONG LIST OF ORDERS. THIS SAYS IT IS A MAJOR DESIGN/MANUFACTURE FAULT/ISSUE. I FEEL IT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED FREE IF THERE ARE THAT MANY ISSUES WITH THIS ITEM. *TR | |
