Consumer Description

WHEN TRANSMISSION IS PLACED INTO REVERSE OR DRIVE, THE ENGINE WILL SURGE AT IDLE SPEED. IT CREATES A VERY SCARY SITUATION ESPECIALLY IN PARKING LOTS. THE SURGE USUALLY HAPPENS RIGHT AFTER THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT AND THEN CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME, USUALLY AT IDLE SPEED. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR AND THEY SAID IT NEED A NEW THROTTLE BODY. I'VE SEEN HUNDREDS OF OTHER POSTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE WITH MODEL YEARS 05-07 FREESTYLES. *JS
