Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING IN THE EXPRESSWAY AT 60 MPH WHEN SUDDENLY MY CAR LOST POWER ON THE ACCELERATION. A WRENCH TOOL APPEAR AND THE DASHBOARD ON THE RPM CLOCK ... AT THAT MOMENT THE CAR DESACCELERATE ALMOST TO 30 MPH AND I WAS UNABLE TO GAIN SPEED. I WENT TO A SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURN IT OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR. EVERYTHING APPEAR TO BE NORMAL BUT THE FIRST THING I DID WAS GO TO THE DEALER. THEY RUN A TEST ON IT AND TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM WAS RELATED TO THE ELECTEIC THROTTLE BODY. I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW IS POSSIBLE TO HAPPEND SOMETHING LIKE THAT WHEN MY CAR BARELY HAS 4 YEARS. THERE IS NO WARRANTY ON OT AND THE REPAIR FOR IT IS REALLY EXPENSIVE.
