Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING 55MPH WHEN MY REDUCED POWER LIGHT CAME ON AND MY CAR WOULDN'T GO OVER 40 MPH WITH MY GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THE NEXT DAY PULLED THE BATTERY CABLE AND LET IT RESET. DROVE FINE FOR 3 MILES AND THEN DID THE SAME THING. REDUCED POWER CAME ON AND WOULDN'T GO OVER 40MPH. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND YOUR CAR SUDDENLY SLOWS DOWN AND THERE ARE CARS BEHIND YOU AND YOU CAN'T GET OVER! *TR
