NHTSA Complaint #10807833 — 2008 DODGE AVENGER

TAKATA RECALL-THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT HAS BEEN APPEARING IN MY CAR WHEN I START IT. I THINK IT'S ABSOLUTELY INSANE THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS ON THE ETC BUT YET NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT IT. IF DODGE IS MAKING A FAULTY PART IN THEIR VEHICLES IT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER A RECALL OR BE FIXED. I WAS DRIVING 60 MPH WHEN I NOTICED MY ACCELERATOR AND RPMS WERE BEING WEIRD. LUCKILY THE FLASHING ETC CAME ON AS I WAS COMING INTO TOWN SO I WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO A PARKING LOT. THE WINTER SEASON IS APPROACHING AND I CAN'T RELY ON MY $10,000 CAR? SOMETHING DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT THERE. I'VE HAD THIS CAR FOR TWO YEARS AND I CAN TELL YOU ALREADY THAT I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER ONE AGAIN. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ANNOUNCED. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM ON THE SAME CAR AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE.
