Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING, TRACTION CONTROL AUTOMATICALLY WENT OFF, THEN AUTOMATICALLY WENT BACK ON. HAPPENED AS I WAS EXITING A PARKING LOT ONTO A BUSY ROAD. WENT OFF AGAIN, THEN IN THE MIDDLE OF MY TURN, CAR SUDDENLY DECELERATED AND I WAS BARELY ABLE TO MAKE IT INTO THE NEXT PARKING LOT. GRADUALLY RAMPED UP TO ABOUT 20 MPH. TRACTION CONTROL AUTOMATICALLY CAME "ON" BUT SO DID THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. LET THE CAR SIT FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND IT WOULD DRIVE (BUT I DID NOT GET OVER 40 MPH OR FURTHER THAN AROUND THE BLOCK). CHECK ENGINE STILL ON. THANK GOODNESS I WAS NOT ON THE INTERSTATE AS HAD BEEN ABOUT 15 MINUTES EARLIER.
