NHTSA Complaint #11230042 — 2013 DODGE AVENGER

MY ISSUE IS WITH MY THROTTLE BODY. THIS WILL BE THE 4TH TIME IT'S BEING FIXED BETWEEN ME AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER 2 JUST FOR ME. THERE HAS BEEN TWO CASES WHERE I WAS DRIVING IN TOWN AND ALL THE SUDDEN I LOSE ALL ACCELERATION. MY GAS PEDAL GOES RIGHT TO THE FLOOR AND IT DOES NOTHING. THEN ONCE I STOPPED IT IDLES REALLY ROUGH. I'VE GONE THROUGH TWO THROTTLE BODY'S IN A 9 MONTH PERIOD AND I FEEL IF THIS HAPPENS AGAIN I MAY NOT BE SO LUCKY TO SURVIVE. THE MOST RECENT TIME WAS 7/2/2019 I WAS DRIVING AND WAS STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT AND MY CAR STARTS THE ROUGH IDLING AND WHEN I HIT THE GAS IT WENT RIGHT TO THE FLOOR WHICH THEN HINDERED TRAFFIC AND ALMOST GOT HIT. THE FORST TIME IT HAPPENS TO ME LIKE I SAID I WAS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET STARTING A DECENT DOWNHILL AND WHEN I GOT TO THE BOTTOM OF HILL MY PEDAL WENT RIGHT TO THE FLOOR AGAIN. THAT'S SCARY SITUATION ESPECIALLY LET'S SAY CROSSING A STREET THE HAS CROSS TRAFFIC THAT DOESN'T HAVE TO STOP AND ALL THE SUDDEN YOUR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND CAN'T MOVE. I'M ALWAYS IN FEAR IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.
