Consumer Description

YESTERDAY THE CAR DROVE FINE UNTILL ABOUT AN HOUR BEFORE I WENT HOME. THEN IT STARTED WITH THE BUMPING/JERKING WHEN SWITCHING FROM ELECTRIC TO GAS. WORSE THAN IT HAS EVER BEEN. THEN THE REVVING STARTED, MORE THAN USUAL, AND WOULDN'T ACCELERATE. THEN IT WAS LIKE THE THROTTLE STUCK. GOT THE REVVING NOICE, BUT THE ECO WASN'T BURRIED AT RED, FOR ABOUT 1/4 MILE BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER INTO A PARKING LOT. SHUT OFF THE CAR. RESTARTED AND DROVE 1 MILE TO HOME. REVVED A FEW TIMES IN THAT PERIOD.
