Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY IMPALA, WITH NO WARNING, MY CAR LOST POWER. THE DASH BEEPED AT ME AND SAID REDUCED ENGINE POWER, SERVICE STALINKTRAK, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL. I HAD TO TURN MY CAR OFF, I WAITED A FEW MINUTES THEN TURNED CAR BACK ON. THE CAR WAS ABLE TO RUN AND DRIVE AFTER THIS, BUT MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. I HAD VEHICLE COMPUTER SCANNED AND HAD A CODE FOR THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH, I HAVE LEARNED I WILL NEED TO REPLACE THE WHOLE THROTTLE BODY. MY CAR HAS NOW LOST POWER SEVERAL TIMES AND MY RPM GAUGE 'BOUNCES'. I WILL BE PARKING MY CAR UNTIL THE PART COMES IN. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS AS YOU LOSE ALL POWER WITH NO WARNING GOING DOWN THE EXPRESSWAY. *TR
