 Description of the problemI had just pulled out of my driveway this morning and began to accelerate, up to about 20 mph, when all of a sudden i lost total power. I looked down at the dash while steering the vehicle over to the side of the street, and noticed the "wrench" light was lit up. I immediately shut the car off, and got out my manual. The manual said the light indicated a transmission/power train/awd issue. I thought i would attempt to start the car again, and see what it would do. I restarted the vehicle, and the wrench light was no longer went, and i had power when i put it in gear. I took my chances, and went ahead and drove it work, hoping it was just a fluke, but decided i would investigate to see if others had experienced the same issue. I came across the entire listing of others who were experiencing this issue so thought i better immediately get it to the dealer and put on diagnostics. I explained to them what i thought the issue might be, the throttle body problem i had read about. They put it on diagnostics, but the only code which came up was a p0456, saying i needed to replace a valve--this code is indicated by the "service engine" light, and not the "wrench". He said they could find no codes for the "wrench" light. I told him that was strange, because the wrench light came on when i lost power. He told me the p0456 could make the car have the same types of issues. I told him i had been driving with the p0456 code for an extended period of time, and it had never affected the performance of the vehicle, so i didn't understand why it would do it now. I feel like this is the same type of issues others are experiencing, but the service manager told me previously when they saw the throttle body issue, there was always a code. Not sure why there is no code showing up, but that also seems to be common. Guess i will take my chances driving at this point.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success.
