Consumer Description

1ST TIME I WAS COMING TO A STOP AT A LIGHT AND THE VEHICLE WANTED TO SURGE FORWARD SEVERAL TIMES, WHEN LIGHT TURNED GREEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE AND IT HESITATED. THIS WOULD HAPPEN EVERY NOW AND AGAIN, NOT A CONTINUOUS ISSUE. IN DEC 2014 IT HAPPENED AGAIN THIS TIME WITH THE VEHICLE STALLING, PUT IN PARK AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP BUT HESITATED WHEN ACCELERATING, DID THIS SEVERAL TIMES WITHIN A 5 MILE SPAN. PARKED, DID MY 8 HOUR WORK DAY CAME OUT, STARTED RIGHT UP AND NO ISSUES DRIVING HOME. LATER THAT NIGHT MY HUSBAND DROVE IT AND IT STALLED ON HIM 3 TIMES WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON. CODE P144A CAME UP, TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THE CODE THROWN SHOULD NOT CAUSE STALLING ISSUES. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING BATTLE, SOMETIMES THE VEHICLE RUNNING GREAT, SOMETIMES I DON'T KNOW IF I'LL MAKE IT TO MY DESTINATION. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS; IN CITY, INTERSTATE, OR AT A COMPLETE STOP. I ONLY HAVE 72000 IN MILEAGE AND MY VEHICLE IS WELL KEPT, WHAT IS GOING ON?!? *TR
