Description of the problem | Car stalled while driving at 40 miles per hour. This situation happened after i took the car to the dealership for a fuel service. The car stalling was awful. It was the third time it happened during that week. The engine service soon sign went on after the incident. I was driving my car with my 2 years old daughter in the backseat. It was a dangerous situation. I was lucky not to be hit by other cars. I brought the car to the service again and they said it was a failure of the throttle body. They charged me 600 dollars for a replacement. I am not happy with this situation because it looked like a malfunction. The car is under 20000 miles and i keep it in tip top condition. |
