| Description of the problem | While driving months ago my car lost all control of throttle, all controls shut down, and i barely made it to the side of the road. Got the car checked, it appeared to be the throttle body sensor. Had the sensor completely replaced, it has been 4 months since replacement, and this morning while driving around a curve the car lost acceleration, all controls shut off, and my steering wheel locked up, causing me to be stuck in the middle of a sharp curve in the middle of the road. I turned the ignition to off and restarted the vehicle and it started up and drove fine. I also have had an issue when accelerating where it has a hard time changing gears, and it gives a slight jerking in the throttle where it won't change. This morning after my incident the car has started vibrating while in drive and idles at 1000 rpm. When i put the car in neutral the vibration stops, but immediately starts back once i remove it out of neutral. |
