Consumer Description

I HAD AN OIL CHANGE ON SATURDAY. AFTER LEAVING THE SERVICE STATION AND DRIVING HOME THE VEHICLE BEGIN TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. I TRIED BREAKING BUT THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE. AFTER BARELY MISSING TWO VEHICLES AND UNABLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, I TURNED OFF THE MAIN ROAD AND KILLED THE IGNITION. STILL UNAWARE OF WHAT WAS HAPPENING I WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND ATTEMPTED TO COMPLETE MY MISSION HOME ONLY TO RUN INTO THE SAME BEHAVIOR. ONCE I ARRIVED HOME I PARKED THE CAR UNTIL MONDAY MORNING. UNABLE TO DRIVE I CALLED THE TOW TRUCK COMPANY AND HAD MY SUV TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP. IT TURNED OUT THE ISSUE WAS A BAD THROTTLE CABLE THAT GOT STUCK. *TR
