Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING UP HILL IN SLOW TRAFFIC FOR ABOUT 5 TO 10 MILES PER HOUR FOR A FEW MILES THEN ALL THE SUDDEN LEARNED CAR DID NOT RESPOND TO THE GAS PEDAL I PUT PRESSURE ON. THE CAR JERK A LITTLE BID AND WON'T MOVE MUCH ONLY BY THE INCHES. THEN I HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND WAITED FOR FEW MINUTES AND STARTED AGAIN, TURNED AROUND AND CANCELLED MY TRIP. A SIMILAR INSTANCE HAPPENED ONCE BEFORE SEVERAL YEARS AGO. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. *TR
