Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 DODGE CALIBER WITH MY TWO YOUNG KIDS IN THE BACK MY ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD CAME ON ABOUT 30 SECONDS LATER MY CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO A PARKING LOT WITHOUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. AFTER BUYING A E.T.C. AND HAVING IT REPLACED ABOUT 12 MONTHS LATER THE ETC WENT OUT AGAIN THIS TIME ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE DOING 65 MPH MY CAR WOULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE THE ETC HAD RUSTED CLOSED AGAIN. LIKING ONLINE SOME OF THESE CARS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR AN ISSUE WITHTHE ETC. I'M AFRAID FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY THERE'S NO WARNING OTHER THAN A LIGHT AND MOMENTS LATER YOUR CAR IISNO LONGER ACCELERATING.
