| Description of the problem | One morning after starting my car i noticed the check engine light was on. As i decided to drive the car down to a local mechanic, i noticed that i had no acceleration power. The car was on, engine was running, but whenever i pushed the gas pedal nothing happened. The car would idle high and coast when put in drive or reverse, but would not accelerate as i pushed the pedal. There have been numerous counts of this happening to people across the country. Luckily i wasn't on the freeway when this happened. |
