Description of the problem | While driving on the freeway my car was running but when i pushed on the gas nothing was happening and the yellow wrench light was on in the car. I had to coast out of the way of all the traffic with being ran into and thank goodness it wasn't during rush hour. This has happened five times since i bought the car used and it doesn't even have 65,000 miles on it yet. I have already taken it to the shop and they determined it was a clogged fuel injector. That was cleaned it the car ran fine for half a day and then it did the same thing twice in one day within fifteen minutes of each event. I put the car in park and turn it off and turn it back on and its fine. This seems to be a problem with the throttle body which seems to be the issue that is all over the internet. This needs to be recalled because its a matter of time before someone dies or gets hurt when this happens to their car. |
