Consumer Description

I OWN A MY 2000 VOLVO S80 2.9. UPON DRIVING IN TOWN THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST ACCELERATION AND ENGINE STARTED SHAKING. THE MESSAGE READER PROMPTED ME TO STOP AND RESTART THE ENGINE. WELL I DID, IN THE TURNING LANE, BUT IT DID NOT HELP. I PULLED OUT OF THE CROSS SECTION "SHAKING". MY MECHANIC SAYS THE ONBOARD COMPUTER PROMPTS HIM TO A FAULTY ENGINE THROTTLE MODULE. WELL THIS CAR HAS ONLY 48000 MILES ON IT. ON THE SAME NOTE: ON MY 1999 S70 GLT AT AROUND 60000 MILES THE SAME PART HAD TO BE REPLACED, BECAUSE IT SHUT DOWN THE CRUISE CONTROL TIME-TO-TIME. *NM
