Consumer Description

NORMAL DRIVING WHEN SUDDENLY THERE WAS NO ACCELERATION & THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON IN THE DASHBOARD. CAR WAS RUNNING BUT THERE WAS NO ACCELERATION & IDLED ROUGHLY. MECHANIC PUT A DIAGNOSTIC ON IT WHICH READ P2112 THROTTLE CONTROL ACTUATOR SYSTEM STUCK CLOSED. BINDING THROTTLE BODY STUCK CLOSED. THERE WAS NO WARNING AND THE INCIDENT WAS VERY SCARY SINCE I COULD NOT GET OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC. THE CAR WOULD GO ABOUT 1MPH UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. WHEN THE CAR WAS LATER SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED, ACCELERATION RETURNED. THIS IS FRIGHTENING AS YOU DO NOT KNOW WHEN IT COULD HAPPEN AND COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
