Description of the problem | While driving down the road at about 45mph, the car stopped acknowledging that i was pushing the gas pedal. The car steadily slowed down, regardless of how much i pushed on the gas pedal. I ended up veering off into a parking lot and shutting the car off. I waited about 5 minutes and restarted it. It acted normal and i resumed my driving. It has happened about 5 times since then as well. Thankfully i haven't been on the highway and have had a place to pull off the road. |
