Consumer Description
MY VEHICLE LOST ALL ABILITY TO ACCELERATE WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. I HAD TO COAST INTO THE EMERGENCY LANE, WHICH WAS A WALL OF SNOW IN COLORADO AT THIS TIME OF YEAR. BLOCKING TRAFFIC IN THE SLOW LANE, I WAITED FOR A TOW TO MY SUBARU DEALER. THEY TOLD ME THAT MY PEDAL ACCELERATOR ASSEMBLY HAD FAILED. AFTER REPAIRS, I EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM 2 WEEKS LATER. THIS TIME THEY ARE STATING THAT MY ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY HAS FAILED. I HAVE RESEARCHED CARCOMPLAINTS.COM AND SEE THAT I AM ONE OF OVER 50 CONSUMERS THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM.
