Description of the problem | Stop at a 3 way stop started to pull out and throttle went completely dead, no response and in front of on coming vehicles , finally came back and was able to clear just in time. Next morning, same issue but this time when it came back it would not run but lurch and spit and sputter. Both stop engine and check engine cams on. Towed to dealer and could not find anything wrong, but i insisted it was a safety related issue. The dealer keep it for another day and heard nothing, then i received a call the third day that it had been test drove and did not make it out of the dealers lot. So i am concern on the safety of the brand new vehicle with hardly any miles and issues right out the gate. I am seeing other related issues of the same nature on the net all huge safety related with throttle response. I am hopeful that it does not turn into someone losing the life over something known. |
