Description of the problem | I will be driving and my vehicle will not go when i press the gas pedal. I will lose all acceleration and it will then begin to jolt and shake until i turn it off. Sometimes it will start right back up sometimes i will have to wait a few minutes. There is no warning, it has done it when i'm going slow and it's done it when i am on interstate going 65mph, it has done it when i'm stopped and try to go. I almost got rear ended a few times because of this problem. I've spoken with many mechanics and they have all told me the throttle body, which will cost between 400-600 dollars to fix. |
