Consumer Description

TRAVELING 55MPH ON A MAIN ROAD IN NC (RTE 13). WITH NO WARNING MY ENGINE LOSES ALL POWER. CAR IS STILL ON, BUT I CANNOT ACCELERATE. I HAVE TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN I COME TO A STOP THE CAR IS BUCKING. I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF, WAIT A MINUTE THEN START IT AGAIN TO "CORRECT" THE BUCKING. THE ENGINE LIGHT AND A LIGHT IN SHAPE OF A WRENCH COME ON SIMULTANEOUSLY. I DRIVE A LITTLE BIT FURTHER AND THE SAME THING HAPPENS. I USE THE SAME PROCEDURE FIVE MORE TIMES TO GET IT TO THE AUTO SHOP, WHERE I'M TOLD I NEED A NEW THROTTLE BODY. MINE IS STICKING OPEN. 5,600 ARE ON BACK ORDER, SO I HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE TO GET VEHICLE REPAIRED. *TR
