Description of the problem | While traveling on a state highway the vehicle suddenly lost power although it was still running. The powertrain light came on. We limped off the highway. After turning the vehicle off and turning it back on, the vehicle was able to run again. The light goes off and stays off until the next incident. The incidents happen very frequently now, and because of this, we are unable to use our vehicle at all. This has happened with me right in the middle of an intersection. We had a code run and have been told it is the throttle body, which is apparently a common problem. We have been unable to obtain the part to repair it so far. |
