Description of the problem | I was slowing to a stop and could feel that the car was going to die and it did. I took it to the dealer and they did a fuel induction service and it seemed to fix the problem. The dealer should have not charged me for a car so new, but they put under the service "maintenance" which i didn't find out till a couple years later when it happened again and i called the dealership. I have since had the same incident happen 5 times and after reading several people have had the same thing with no explanation i decided to put my incidents in so that more people would know it isn't just a single happening of the same thing. After this happens i take the car on the freeway and floor it meaning to blow out what i think may be stuck in the fuel line???? It always works for a while. This thing doesn't occur for any particular reason and i have the car well maintained. I now have over 120,000 miles and the last time it did this was about 6 months ago. Thank goodness nothing bad has happened because of it. |
