Consumer Description

FIRST TIME IT ALMOST COMPLETELY DIED ON ME GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY, THEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN IT GUNNED IT AND TOOK OFF. ABOUT 3 MILES DOWN THE HIGH WAY ENGINE LIGHTS AND SERVICE LIGHTS CAME ON. I GOT TO WORK AND THEY TOWED IT. THEY SAID THEY CHANGED SOME KIND OF WIRING UNDER THE FRONT WINDOW AND DASH. THAT DIDN'T FIX IT. THE NEXT DAY I WAS PULLING OUT OF WENDY'S AND GIVE IT SOME GAS AND NOTHING HAPPENED. I ROLLED THEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN IT GUNNED IT AGAIN. I ALMOST GOT HIT. GOT IT HOME AND PARTED IT. TOOK IT IN THE NEXT DAY AND THEY CHANGED THE THROTTLE BODY ON IT. IT STILL HESITATES AS YOU GO DOWN THE HIGHWAY. HAS VERY LITTLE TAKE OFF AND MERGING POWER. THE ONLY THING I AM GLAD I DID WHEN I BOUGHT THIS CAR WAS I GOT A STRAIGHT DRIVE. IT WOULD HAVE NO POWER IF IT WAS AN AUTOMATIC. *TR
