Consumer Description

WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SURGE AS IF THE ACCELERATOR WAS BEING PRESSED AND RELEASED, THE CAR STARTED RUNNING ROUGH AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER DRIVING THROUGH THE INTERSECTION THE CAR RAN NORMALLY FOR SEVERAL WEEKS. THE CAR HAS REPEATEDLY HAD THIS SYMPTOM ALONG WITH FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THE ACCELERATOR AND SHUTTING OFF. THE LAST INCIDENT HAPPENED ON MARCH 9TH OF 2014 WHILE TURNING RIGHT IN AN INTERSECTION THE CAR FAILED TO RESPOND TO THE ACCELERATOR AND JUST QUIT. I ALLOWED THE CAR TO DRIFT TO A CENTER AREA OF THE ROAD AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT. THE DEALER HAS ONCE TOLD US WE WERE PROBABLY OVER FILLING (TOPPING OFF) THE TANK, WE HAVE MADE SURE THAT WE LET THE PUMP STOP AFTER IF CLICKS OFF THE FIRST TIME YET THE INCIDENTS CONTINUE AND AT AN INCREASED RATE. THE CAR HAS BEEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER A SECOND TIME TO ATTEMPT TO DIAGNOSE THIS ISSUE. *TR
