Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 55, MILES PER HOUR THE ENG WENT TO IDE SPEED, THE CHECK ENG LIGHT CAME ON. I DRIFTED OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, THE THROTTLE WAS UNRESPONSIVE. READ THE CODE OUT AND IT WAS FOR THROTTLE PEDAL POSITION SENSOR. IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE SINCE, THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS IF IN MAJOR TRAFFIC SUCH AS ON A FREEWAY. IT COULD CAUSE A CRASH. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH SUBARU, I HAVE RESEARCHED IT AND MANY PEOPLE REPORT THIS IN FORUMS ON THE INTERNET.
