Consumer Description

MY CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING. IT SPUTTERS, MEANING I WILL HAVE MY FOOT ON THE GAS, THE RPMS WILL DROP TO 500, THEN WITH MY FOOT OFF THE GAS THE RPMS JUMP ALL THE WAY TO 2500! THIS SUDDEN ACCELERATION CAN PLOW ME RIGHT INTO A CAR, POLE, BUSY INTERSECTION, ETC. IT HAPPENS OFTEN. IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT 60 MPH, AND ON LOCAL STREETS AT 25 MPH. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS! IF THE CAR SUDDENLY LOSES ACCELERATION AND MY FOOT IS STILL ON THE GAS, THE GUY BEHIND ME IS GOING TO HIT ME. AND WHEN THE CAR ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN ALL OF A SUDDEN, IM GOING TO REAR END THE GUY IN FRONT OF ME. THIS IS HORRIBLE! *TR
