Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2007 CHEVY HHR. I AM TAKING IT TO THE CHEVY DEALER FOR THE 3RD TIME FOR A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND IT RUNNING IN REDUCED POWER MODE - WHICH SEEMS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I HAVE HAD THE THROTTLE SWITCH REPLACED, THE CONNECTOR REPLACED AND THE WIRING CHECKED. THE RPM HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHICH IS VERY VERY UNSAFE ON 45 MPH ROADS. I THOUGHT THIS WAS FIXED - TWICE - BUT ENDED UP NOT BEING ABLE TO PICK UP SPEED AND COULD HAVE BEEN HURT IF I HAD BEEN REAR -ENDED.I HAVE CHECKED SEVERAL ONLINE FORUMS (WWW.CHEVYHHR.NET) AND THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. *TR
