Consumer Description

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING. SEVERE HESITATION AND LOSS OF POWER. I HAVE REPLACED THE 3 IGNITION COILS, THE IGNITION MODULE, NEW SPARK PLUGS, AND A WIRE SET. I HAVE BEEN READING ALOT ABOUT FIRES ON THIS SITE. YESTERDAY 7/7/16 WHEN I CAME HOME THERE WAS A LOUD WEERING SOUND, AND ONCE I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE THEIR WAS A LOUD PIERCING WHISTLE AS IF BUILT UP PRESSURE WAS BEING RELIEVED UNDER THE HOOD NEAR THE PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL WELL. TODAY AGAIN A LACK OF POWER, FLASHING SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT, AND NO POWER. I AFRAID THE ENGINE MIGHT CATCH ON FIRE AS IN OTHER POSTINGS ON THIS SITE.
