NHTSA Complaint #10691991 — 2007 SATURN OUTLOOK

DRIVING IN SUB ZERO WEATHER, I DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN MY CAR LOST POWER AND NOW I FIND OUT, IT IS SOMETHING CALLED "LIMP" MODE. CAR WOULD NOT GO MORE THAN 35 MILES PER HOUR AND I HAD MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS COMING ONE. HOW DANGEROUS TO BE ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MILES PER HOUR SEE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON AND SUDDENLY REALIZE YOU HAVE NO POWER. TRYING TO GET INTO THE OUTER LANE AND GET OFF THE HIGHWAY ALMOST COST ME MY LIFE. I WAS -20 DEGREES OUT THAT DAY. I FOUND THIS LISTED ON A WEB SITE, SOUND LIKE GM KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM ALREADY. I WORK WITH A GIRL THAT HAS A ACADIA. SHE SAW MY FACEBOOK POST ABOUT MY CAR. SHE WAS ALSO ON THE HIGHWAY THE SAME DAY I WAS AND HERE CAR WAS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING MY WAS. TWO CARS WITH LOSS OF POWER AT THE SAME TIME AND DAY. THIS IS DANGEROUS. HERE IS THE LINK I FOUND REGARDING THIS PROBLEM:HTTP://RICKSFREEAUTOREPAIRADVICE.COM/OIL-IN-AIR-INTAKE-DUCT/ GM HAS ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN TO ADDRESS A PROBLEM WITH OIL IN AIR INTAKE DUCT, ALONG WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, POOR ACCELERATION, AND THROTTLE BODY FREEZING. THE BULLETIN APPLIES TO THE FOLLOWING VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE 3.6L ENGINE: 2008-11 BUICK ENCLAVE, 2007-11 CHEVROLET MALIBU, 2009-11 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE,2007-11 GMC ACADIA,2007-10 PONTIAC G6, 2007-09 SATURN AURA, 2007-10 SATURN OUTLOOK GM STATES THAT THE PROBLEM OCCURS AFTER A COLD START UP OR WHEN DRIVING IN COLD TEMPERATURES. IF YOU SCAN THE PCM, ICE FORMATION IS CAUSED BY CONDENSATION FREEZING AT THE BASE OF THE THROTTLE BODY WITH ADDITIONAL COLLECTION OF ICE FORMATION DEPOSITS IN THE AIR INLET DUCT. FREEZING CONDENSATION FORMS AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN AND THEN PARKED IN LOW AMBIENT TEMPERATURES. OIL DEPOSITS ARE THE COLLECTION OF THE ENGINE VAPORS, FUEL DILUTION AND OIL MIST AT THE BASE OF THE THROTTLE BODY WITH ADDITIONAL FORMATION COLLECTING IN THE DUCT. *TR
