Consumer Description

CAR WENT INTO "LIMP MODE" TWICE WITHIN A 3 MILE SPAN WHILE DOING APPROX 50MPH ON A COUNTRY ROAD. BOTH TIMES, STOPPING AND RESTARTING THE ENGINE ALLOWED NORMAL OPERATION. 5 DAYS PRIOR, THE CAR ALSO STALLED TWICE. ONCE WHILE PRESSING THE GAS FROM A COMPLETE STOP, THE OTHER WHILE PRESSING THE GAS JUST BEFORE COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP (TRAFFIC SIGNAL WENT FROM RED TO GREEN). THIS IS HAPPENING LESS THAN 10 DAYS AFTER I HAD VCT SOLENOIDS REPLACED THAT WERE CAUSING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON. *TR
