Description of the problem | Problem occurred several times and appears to be more frequent. The first time it occurred i was driving 55 miles per hour and all of a sudden the check engine light came on and the gas pedal did nothing, the car did not accelerate. I had to pull over and shut the car off. When i started the car beck up it hesitated, the check engine light turned off, and worked fine. The same thing happened approximately 2 weeks later. Now i noticed that the rpm gauge fluctuates quite a bit when i start the car and then again when i am stopped at a traffic light. Today, i was driving with no problem and stopped because the car in front me was stopped to make a turn. When i tried to continue driving, my car stalled and i had to turn it off and then back on. There were a line of cars behind me and i was almost rear-ended. |
