Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL "OFF" (ESC OFF) LIGHT AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AT THE SAME TIME. UPON TAKING IT TO THE A MECHANIC, HE INFORMED ME THAT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR WAS BAD. I CONTINUED READING ONLINE, AND HAVE NOTICE THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MANY OCCASIONS. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE VEHICLE LOOSES ALL POWER TO MAKE ANY NECESSARY CORRECTIVE ACTIONS WHICH COULD RESULT IN A ACCIDENT. IT ALSO SLOWS THE CAR DRASTICALLY WHILE IN MOTION, AGAIN WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. ## VIN FAILED ## *TR
