Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING NORMALLY ON A PARKWAY IN WASH DC. SUDDENLY THE ENGINE LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT GO MORE THAN 10 MPH. I "LIMPED" TO A GAS STATION AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE, INSPECTED FOR LOOSE WIRES, OR OTHER OBSERVABLE DEFECTS. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR AGAIN THE ETS LIGHT WAS ON AND STAYED ON. NOW THE CAR RUNS ERRATICALLY LURCHING FORWARD OR SPUTTERING OR JUST PLAIN LOSING POWER AT RANDOM. *TR
