Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING THIS MORNING, MY CAR HESITATED AND STALLED. I WAS ABLE TO GET MY CAR RESTARTED, BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES OF DRIVING, THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. IT WAS VERY STRESSFUL BECAUSE THIS ALL HAPPENED DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC IN WASHINGTON DC. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND IT SEEMS THAT IT IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE... PLEASE RECALL NOW FOR SAFETY REASONS!!!! *TR
