| Description of the problem | I was driving down the highway traveling at approximately 60mph when the car suddenly stalled and i was not able to accelerate. The wrench light came on at the same time as well. I turned on my hazard lights and was able to coast to the shoulder of the road. The car started to shake a lot as it slowed down. I turned the car off, and was able to start back up again. The very next morning while traveling a 50mph on a different highway the same thing happened again. I took it to the dealership to have a diagnostic run on the car as i had no idea why it was stopping. As i was about to turn into the dealership traveling at 25mph it stalled again. The result of the diagnostic test was there was a code stored in system of the electronic throttle body. It was giving a code for being stuck open when it should not have been. It was a failed component. After further internet research there is an open nhtsa investigation action number pe13003 (http://www-odi. Nhtsa. Dot. Gov/cars/problems/defect/results. Cfm? Action_number=pe13003&searchtype=quicksearch&summary=true) for this exact issue. I would like my vehicle to be added to the investigation as this is a serious safety defect with my vehicle that could have caused me bodily harm or death. It needs to be addressed and the part recalled. |
