Consumer Description

ENGINE WILL CRANK BUT NOT TURN OVER. UPON MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS THE ENGINE WILL GET CLOSE TO TURNING OVER AND THEN CUT ITSELF OFF IN THE ANTI-THEFT SECURITY MANNER. WAITING 10-20 MINUTES WILL MOST TIMES ALLOW FOR THE ENGINE TO THEN TURN OVER SUCCESSFULLY. NUMEROUS WEBSITES AND VEHICLE OWNERS, HAVE POSTED COMPLAINTS AND HAD NO REAL SOLUTION, EVEN AFTER VISITING LOCAL DEALERSHIPS WHO TRY TO INVESTIGATE THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM, WITH NO ONE SOLUTION OR FIX. OWNERS TRY TROUBLE SHOOTING THE PROBLEM THROUGH SENSORS, KEY WEIGHTS, BATTERY CONNECTION, AND THE THROTTLE BODY, ALL WITH NO FIX AND CONTINUING RANDOM RECURRING INCIDENTS. THE SAFETY ISSUE OF THIS COMPLAINT IS THAT YOU ARE LEAVING DRIVERS IN A POTENTIAL STRANDED SITUATION. *TR
