Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK GOING ABOUT 60 MPH ON THE BELTWAY AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN THE NOTIFICATION LIGHT SAID THAT THE ENGINE SPEED WAS REDUCED CHECK TRACTION CONTROL. I COULDN'T GO PAST 40 MPH. I MADE IT TO WORK AND PARKED THE CAR. I WENT BACK 8 AND HALF HOURS LATER THINKING IT WASN'T GOING TO START OR I WASN'T GOING TO BE ABLE TO GET HOME. I STARTED THE CAR AND WAS FINE. I HAVEN'T HAD THE ISSUE SINCE. OF COURSE I RESEARCHED AND THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THIS CAR. HOPEFULLY THERE WILL BE A RECALL. IT IS A SHAME THAT PEOPLE HAVE TO PAY MONEY TO FIX THINGS THAT MANY ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH. APPARENTLY, IT IS THE TRAVEL PEDAL SENSOR. SO NOW I HAVE TO FIX THE TRAVEL PEDAL SENSOR AND GET THE KEY FROM BEING STUCK IN THE IGNITION. ANOTHER COMPLAINT MADE TODAY BY SEPARATE ENTRY. *TR
