Consumer Description

I WAS STOPPED AT A BUSY INTERSECTION DURING MORNING RUSH HOUR WHEN MY CAR STALLED. I TRIED UNSUCCESSFULLY SEVERAL TIMES TO RESTART THE ENGINE. AFTER ALLOWING IT TO SIT FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, THE CAR FINALLY RESTARTED. I MOVED THE CAR INTO A PARKING LOT AND ALLOWED IT TO SIT, IDLING, FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. WHEN I PUT THE CAR BACK INTO DRIVE, IT LURCHED FORWARD. DESPITE PRESSING ON THE GAS, IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PAST 10 MPH. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHERE THEY SAID THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE HAD FAILED. IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY BUT, HAD IT NOT BEEN, WOULD HAVE COST ME $900. I PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW IN 2006, AND IT HAS BEEN SERVICED REGULARLY. *TR
