Consumer Description

I WAS SLOWING TO A STOP AND COULD FEEL THAT THE CAR WAS GOING TO DIE AND IT DID. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY DID A FUEL INDUCTION SERVICE AND IT SEEMED TO FIX THE PROBLEM.THE DEALER SHOULD HAVE NOT CHARGED ME FOR A CAR SO NEW, BUT THEY PUT UNDER THE SERVICE "MAINTENANCE" WHICH I DIDN'T FIND OUT TILL A COUPLE YEARS LATER WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP. I HAVE SINCE HAD THE SAME INCIDENT HAPPEN 5 TIMES AND AFTER READING SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME THING WITH NO EXPLANATION I DECIDED TO PUT MY INCIDENTS IN SO THAT MORE PEOPLE WOULD KNOW IT ISN'T JUST A SINGLE HAPPENING OF THE SAME THING. AFTER THIS HAPPENS I TAKE THE CAR ON THE FREEWAY AND FLOOR IT MEANING TO BLOW OUT WHAT I THINK MAY BE STUCK IN THE FUEL LINE???? IT ALWAYS WORKS FOR A WHILE. THIS THING DOESN'T OCCUR FOR ANY PARTICULAR REASON AND I HAVE THE CAR WELL MAINTAINED. I NOW HAVE OVER 120,000 MILES AND THE LAST TIME IT DID THIS WAS ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO. THANK GOODNESS NOTHING BAD HAS HAPPENED BECAUSE OF IT. *TR
