Consumer Description

THE THROTTLE VALVE ASSEMBLY WAS BAD. THE CAR STOPPED RUNNING WHEN THE WIFE WAS DRIVING HIGHWAY 105 AT 50 MPH. SHE TURNED ON THE FLASHERS AND WAS ABLE TO GET OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AFTER A SHORT TIME THE CAR WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED AND DRIVEN BACK TO THE HOUSE. THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN ABOUT TWO MONTHS LATER. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE ENGINE STOPS WITH NO WARNING.
