Consumer Description

THE CAR INTERMITTENTLY STALLS ON DECELERATION. WHEN DECELERATING TO A STOP, PUSHING IN THE CLUTCH AND BRAKING WILL CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO DIE. THERE IS NO WARNING OR DEFINITE RATE OF SPEED OR RPM. IT OCCURS OCCASIONALLY. THE DEALER ATTEMPTED TO FIX BY ADJUSTING THE VOLTAGE ON THE THROTTLE POSITION SWITCH, SECOND REPROGRAMMED THE COMPUTER. THE THIRD OCCURANCE STATED THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE WHEN THE CAR DIES WHILE BRAKING, YOU LOSE POWER STEERING AND BRAKING ABILITY.*AK
