Consumer Description

THE CHECK/SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. AFTER A FEW DAYS IT GOES AWAY. I HAVE HAD THE CODES READ AND THE ISSUE CANNOT BE DETERMINED. SOMETIMES THE ACCELERATION FROM STOP DOES NOT RESPOND TIMELY. IT MAKES IT DIFFICULT WHEN MERGING ON FREEWAYS. I WAS ALMOST INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT WHEN THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED DUE TO SLOW RESPONSE OF ACCELERATION. MAF HAS BEEN CLEAN. THE A NEW MAF WAS INSTALLED. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. ALSO I AM NOT SURE IF THIS IS RELATED BUT I CANNOT RUN MY AIR CONDITIONER UNTIL THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING FOR A FEW MILES. IF I DO THE COMPRESSOR WILL MAKE AN AWFUL NOISE. AN ODOR HAS STARTED TO COME FROM THE VENTS WHEN THE AIR IS NOT RUNNING.
