Consumer Description

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING 75 MPH ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN SHE HEARD A "DING" AND THE INFORMATION CENTER SAID "SERVICE STABILITY" "ENGINE POWER REDUCED" IT THEN TOOK ALL ENGINE POWER FROM THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY CAUSING IT TO SLOW TO A VERY UNSAFE 20 MPH ALMOST INSTANTLY AND CAUSED HER TO NARROWLY AVOID BEING HIT FROM BEHIND. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE AND WERE TOLD WE NEEDED A NEW THROTTLE BODY CABLE WHICH WE BOUGHT AND HAD THEM INSTALL, BUT THE PROBLEM HAS NEVER GONE AWAY. I HAVE READ MANY MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET BUT AFTER YEARS OF COMPLAINING NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE? IT CERTAINLY SEEMS LIKE IT. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE GOVERNMENT SEVERAL YEARS AGO ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND I AM SURE MANY OTHERS HAVE AS WELL. NOTHING HAS EVER BEEN DONE. TO CAP IT OFF, AND THE REASON I AM ON THIS AGAIN, IS BECAUSE THIS PAST WEEKEND I RENTED A BUICK ENCLAVE FROM BUDGET RENTAL CARS IN LITTLE ROCK ARKANSAS. THIS WAS A NEW VEHICLE THAT HAD ONLY 5 MILES ON IT WHEN I LEFT THE LOT. AT AROUND 65 MILES LATER THE VEHICLE DID THE SAME EXACT THING, AND REDUCED MY SPEED TO 25 WITH AN 18 WHEELER BEHIND ME THAT HAD TO SWERVE TO MISS ME AS I SWERVED TO THE SHOULDER TO GET OUT OF THE WAY. PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED!!! *TR
