Description of the problem | Was driving on the freeway and car started to jerk and i started to lose speed even though i was stepping on the gas nothing was happening. I was able to pull over safely to shoulder and put the car into park while the car was shaking violently and turn it off, waited a few minutes and with hesitation it started back up and i was able to continue home.. Happened a second time the very next day only doing 25 and a wrench indicator light came on and again no gas or speed from the pedal was able to shut it off restart and continue home.. Very scary and dangerous situation it needs to be addressed.. |
