| Description of the problem | The car lost all acceleration on the highway. I was driving 65 in the middle lane and had to get over to the shoulder with no way to accelerate. The wrench warning light appeared on the dash. Turned the car off and restarted it and it worked fine for three days. Took it to the dealership and it is the throttle body going bad. This costs $420. 00 to replace. This is a terrible hazard as the only thing you can do is hope to coast to the shoulder of the road safely. |
