Consumer Description

ON MARCH 27, 2021 ENGINE RANDOMLY STARTED HAVING ISSUES WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND 'REDUCED ENGINE POWER' NOTIFICATION CAME ON. EVEN BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY THE CAR SHUT OFF AND HAD TO PUSH DOWN HARD ON GAS TO GET IT TO BACK UP BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE BACK. WHEN I WAS COMING OUT OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED POSITION WHEN TURNING ONTO THE MAIN STREET AND THE CARS HAD TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEHIND ME. DRIVING WAS ROUGH, WAS FEELING LIKE IT WAS GOING TO BREAKDOWN. I GOT THE CAR FIXED APRIL 1-2, 2021. THE ENGINE LIGHT IS BACK ON APRIL 4, 2021.
