Consumer Description

WHILE IN MOTION ON THE STREET AND CAR LOSE THROTTLE. PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL DID NOT THING AND ONLY MADE THE CARE STUTTER. IT WOULDN'T GOT PASS 30MILES PER HOUR BUT ALSO WOULDN'T STAY AT 30 EITHER IT WILL GO DOWN AND UP CHOKING ON ITS SELF. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES AND AT ANY SPEED. THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT IS TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND TURN IT ON AGAIN. THIS FIX IS TEMPORARILY AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND IT ALMOST CAUSE ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT.
