Consumer Description

MY 2004 CHEVROLET COLORADO HAS HAD REPEATED A RECURRING PROBLEM WHERE IT WILL NOT RESPOND TO THE THROTTLE AT ALL WHILE DRIVING. IN ALL CASES THIS HAS HAPPENED WHEN THE ENGINE IS WARMING UP FROM A COMPLETE COLD START IN THE MORNING. WHILE DRIVING AT 45-50 MILES PER HOUR THE ENGINE WILL DROP TO IDLE SPEED AND THERE IS NO RESPONSE TO THROTTLE INPUT. THE DEALER HAS HAD THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE ON THIS ISSUE 5 TIMES NOW AND CAN NOTHING WRONG. THERE ARE NO CODES SET IN THE COMPUTER AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NEVER COMES ON. THE PROBLEM WILL CLEAR ITSELF AFTER 20 TO 30 SECONDS AND MAY NOT OCCUR AGAIN FOR WEEKS. *TR
