Consumer Description

This is the third time we have taken our vehicle to be serviced in 2022. The first time was January 2022, next June 2022, and the third a week later after the June 2022. The issue is that the throttle body sensor light comes on and the car starts to act up and has no power. The same issue has occurred all three times. The throttlebody has been replaced twice already and we are currently waiting to see if it will need to be replaced a third time. I believe this poses a safety or hazard risk as this happens when driving during high speeds on the freeway as well as on the streets and can cause a collision.
