Consumer Description

WHEN OPERATING THE VEHICLE, I CAN'T EXCEDE 30 M.P.H. ON LEVEL TERRAIN. MAYBE 15 M.P.H. GOING UP HILLS WITH 4 WAY FLASHERS ACTIVATED. ACCELERATING WITH GAS PEDAL HAS NO EFFECT. DASHBOARD VCS LIGHT IS ON AND ENGINE SYMBOL. PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND IF VEHICLE IS OPERATING CORRECTLY, SERVICE TECHNICIAN CAN'T FIND ANY FAULTS. THIS CONDITION IS FRIGHTFUL THIS PROBLEM EXISTS UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS OVER CITY STREETS AND EXPRESSWAYS. I'VE OBSERVED THAT WHEN ENGINE IS IDLING, DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR WILL MAXIMIZE THE R.P.M. TO ONLY 3,000 SEVERAL TIMES, I'VE TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTED WITH OPERATION NORMAL BUT DASHBOARD ENGINE SYMBOL INDICATED. *TR
