Consumer Description

VEHICLE KEEPS STALLING WHEN TRYING TO START UP. CAR RUMBLES WHEN IT FINALLY DOES START. MAKES A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE WHEN SHIFTING GEARS. AFTER I START UP AFTER A STOP SIGN OR STOP LIGHT, I BARELY TOUCH THE GAS AND ITS OFF IN A FLASH. WHEN I AM ON THE FREEWAY AND TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELARATOR, IT CONTINUES AT THE SAME SPEED FOR 5 MINUTES. I CHECKED THE CRUISE CONTROL AND IT WAS OFF. THE ENGINE SOUNDS LIKE A DIESEL ENGINE EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE.*AK
