Consumer Description

RANDOMLY MY TRUCK WILL GO IN ENGINE POWER REDUCED AND TOP SPEED IS 35 MPH. IT HAPPENED A COUPLE OF TIME ON THE INTERSTATE. THE CODE THAT POPS UP IS P2135 AND I LOOKED IT UP ON LINE. THE INTERNET IS FULL OF FORMS AND VIDEOS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. EVERYTHING ON THE INTERNET POINTS TO THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. I'VE REPLACED IT TWICE AND REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY TWICE AND WIRING TWICE. I PUT TRUCK IN THE SHOP THREE TIMES. SPENT A GOOD $1500 TRYING TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND IT STILL POPS UP EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS.
