Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON THE EXPRESSWAY DURING THE MORNING RUSH HOUR DOING 70 MPH WHEN MY VEHICLE STALLED. I HAD TO RISK MOVING OVER THREE LANES TO THE OFF RAMP WITHOUT HAVING POWER. I ROLLED UP THE EXIT RAMP AND PULLED SAFELY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR BUT NOTICED BOTH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND SERVICE LIGHT WERE ON. THE CAR DIED TWO ADDITIONAL TIMES BEFORE I GOT TO AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP. THE REPAIR SHOP TOLD ME THE SERVICE CODE WAS P2111 WHICH INDICATED A PROBLEM WITH THE THROTTLE. THIS WAS A TERRIBLE INCIDENT AND I WAS RELIEVED TO MAKE IT SAFELY OFF THE ROAD. *TR
