Reported on Aug 20, 2013
| WAS TAKING OFF FROM STOP LIGHT AND LOST CONTROL OF ACCELERATION PEDAL. CAR WOULD NOT REACT TO PRESSURE APPLIED TO PEDAL. PUT CAR IN PARK AND IT STARTED JERKING. TURNED CAR OFF AND ON AGAIN AND IT ACTED FINE FOR THE NEXT 30 MILES. SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. TOOK CAR TO MECHANIC, COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. A FEW DAYS WENT BY WITH NO ISSUES, THEN WHILE DRIVING AT AROUND 45-50 MPH, THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR DROPPED SPEED IMMEDIATELY TO 5 MPH. I HAD TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY PULL OFF IN THE GRASS AS ANOTHER VEHICLE WAS BEHIND ME AND WE WERE GOING AROUND A CURVE. I STARTED CAR AGAIN AND DROVE ABOUT 3 MILES AND IT DID THE SAME THING WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED ABOUT 8 TIMES. OUR MECHANIC HAS LOOKED AT THE CAR TWICE AND COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. *TR | |
