| Description of the problem | driving down the road at normal speed of traffic and the car looses acceleration. The car goes from 55 mph down to 0 and i have to pull over and stop the car and then start again. The gas pedal is dead is how it is described by the tech no response to me pushing it down. This is a danger because it happens at random and in the flow of traffic. This is a safety issue since the traffic does not stop going at normal speed and there have been several close calls where i felt in danger of being rear ended ... This happened several times randomly... The dealership says they have never heard of this happening and not offering any insight into how to fix it at all. |
