Consumer Description

I BOUGHT A 2011 DODGE AVENGER MAINSTREET THREE YEARS AGO. AT 13K MILES MY CAR STARTED GIVING ME PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL. THE CAR BASICALLY LOSES POWER WITH NO WARNING. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER 5 TIMES SINCE FEBRUARY 2013 DUE TO THIS PROBLEM AND ON TWO OCCASIONS THEY SAID THEY REPLACED THE ETC. RECENTLY THE CAR WAS GIVING ME PROBLEMS AGAIN WITH THE ETC WHERE THE CAR WOULD LOSE POWER WITH NO WARNING. I TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT DEALER LESS THAN TWO WEEKS AGO AND GOT THE ETC REPLACED AND INSTALLED. YESTERDAY MY CAR GAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS WHERE THE CAR WOULD LOSE POWER. I KNOW THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE TIPM OF CHRYSLER VEHICLES AND I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT THE PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR ARE RELATED TO THE TIPM. IF IT WAS JUST THE ETC MY CAR WOULD BE GOOD BUT KEEP IN MIND THE PART WAS REPLACED THREE TIMES AND THE CAR GIVES ME THE SAME ISSUES. I NEED ADVOCACY FOR THIS ISSUE. I FEAR MY CAR MAY BE A LEMON. *TR
