Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED UP A HILL, THE TRANSMISSION DECELERATED EVEN WHEN THE CONSUMER'S FOOT WAS ON THE ACCELERATOR, WHICH MADE THE VEHICLE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. THE VEHICLE ALSO DIED ON TAKE OFF. GROMMETS ON LOWER CONTROLS RUBBED THE TORSION BARS. WHILE PUSHING ACCELERATOR PEDAL THE CONSUMER HAD TO BUILD UP RPMS BY PRESSING THE GAS. THE VEHICLE DID NOT TAKE FUEL UNTIL THE RMPS BUILT UP WHEN CLIMBING HILLS. *JB *CB *JB
