Description of the problem	This is the third time this has happened but by far, the most significant. This incident occurred 9/8/13 - driving down nys interstate and was passing another vehicle when the car began to lose power. I was traveling at 70 mph and before i knew it was down to 35. I immediately pulled over onto the median, turned the car off and re-started it. (this is what i was told to do on 8/19/13 during the first incident). Prior to that, i put on my emergency flashers, waved my hand frantically out the window for the cars behind me to get over, as there was nothing i could do. After restarting my car i ultimately removed myself from the highway and took the back road home. Needless to say, i an quite anxious to get back on the highway and drive my vehicle. I called the dealership again and they told me to bring it in for a software upgrade. I asked if in fact they could just put in a new throttle actuator and they said it cost between $600-$1,000. Apparently this condition causing accidents or even possible injuries still does not warrant the new equipment.
