Consumer Description
WHILE DRIVING INTO A PARKING LOT, MY ENGINE STARTING REVVING AND RUNNING VERY ROUGH. I LOST POWER AND CONTROL. THE ENGINE LIGHT AND STABILITRAK CONTROL WARNING CAME ON. FORTUNATELY, I WAS GOING SLOW, SO I WAS ABLE TO STOP AND TURN OFF THE CAR. I TURNED IT BACK ON AND THE ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON AND THE STABILITRAK WARNING CAME BACK ON. TURNED IT BACK OFF AND LET IT SIT. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME WITH NO ISSUES, BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON. FROM MY SHORT AMOUNT OF RESEARCH THIS SEEMS LIKE A COMMON, SERIOUS ISSUE. I HAVE A NEW, [XXX] YEAR OLD DRIVER WHO USES THIS CAR - NOT ANYMORE - UNTIL A FIX IS FOUND!
