Consumer Description

WAS DRIVING ON RESIDENTIAL STREET, APPROXIMATELY 25-30 MPH, AND CAR JUST LOST POWER AND STALLED. AFTER A FEW MINUTES IT COULD START AGAIN - BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE, EVEN IF GAS WAS PUSHED DOWN. AFTER A WEEK AT THE DEALERSHIP - THEY SAID IT WAS THE THROTTLE. MY CAR WOULD NOT START BEFORE (AFTER ONLY HAVING THE CAR FOR APPROXIMATELY 7 MONTHS AND APPROXIMATELY 2000 MILES) - AND AFTER HAVING IT TOWED TO THE DEALER, THEY JUST SAID THE FUEL WAS GELLING. BUT THEY DID DO A COMPUTER UPGRADE AND SAID THERE "PARTICLES IN THE FUEL LINE" THAT THEY CLEANED OUT AND SAID I MAY HAVE GOTTEN "BAD FUEL". 1 WEEK AFTER MY 40000 MILE ROUTINE MAINTENANCE CHECK - MY GLOW PLUG LIGHT WENT ON AND I HAD TO HAVE A SENSOR REPLACED.
