Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH ON A COUNTRY ROAD, AFTER A CURVE IN THE ROAD, MY JEEP"S TRACTION CONTROL AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL AS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL STARTED FLASHING. MY JEEP THEN WENT INTO "LIMP MODE" AND I COULDN'T DRIVE FASTER THAN 40 MPH. I'M SO GLAD THAT I WAS ON A COUNTRY ROAD BECAUSE IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED ON A HIGHWAY IT WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET MY JEEP HOME AND IT HAS BEEN FINE SINCE BUT NOW I'M CONSTANTLY WORRIED THAT THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN AT ANYTIME.
