 Description of the problemI was driving and the car just lost power. I had just exited the hwy. I pulled over to the side of the road put the car in park and turned the key back off and the car restarted. Then this happened again about 5 minutes later. Then two weeks later is happened again same situation. It happened about 3- 4 times. We thought maybe it was bad gas -- so we refilled with premium gas.... Two weeks later it happened again 3 times in a row. On a major highway -- it was very scary.. I took it to the dealer they found nothing - did not charge me and there was no report that i even took the car in to them . 3 weeks after that .. It happened constantly but i was on a trip away from home -- it started back up every time .. I it happened 9 time in one day. 3 times on the interstate going about 60 mph -- it was very upsetting.. When i got home i took it to the dealer and they said it was the abs and it would cost 800$+ -- i told them to keep the car and drive it until the issue i had happened to them -- they had it 2- 3 days and it finally happened to them when they had the diagnostics on the car... It was the throttle sensor ... They charged me $400+ and it is now fixed--my sister had an escape an did have the same issue -- my 83 year old mother has the same car and i would not want this to happen to her! Thanks
