Consumer Description

CAR RANDOMLY GOES INTO "LIMP MODE" WHILE DRIVING, USUALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. WRENCH LIGHT GOES ON INDICATING A THROTTLE BODY ISSUE. THIS HAS OCCURRED ABOUT 10 TIMES NOW OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS. AFTER TURNING CAR OFF, THEN ON AGAIN, THERE IS NO LONGER A LIGHT AND CAR RUNS FINE. TWICE I'VE TAKEN THE CAR IN AFTER SUCH AN OCCURRENCE AND NEITHER THE DEALERSHIP OR LOCAL MECHANIC COULD FIND ANY INDICATION OF A ERROR LIGHT. *TR
