Description of the problem | Driving in traffic slowed to turn left across railroad tracks and car died. When i tried to accelerate the gas pedal went to floor but car crawled slowly to where we could pull off road. Disconnected and reconnected battery, car started ran 1 mile stopped again. Friend cleared electronic error code with tester and car has run ok until recently when back gate will not open until error code was cleared by car dealer. After car slowing incident occurred we returned car to dealer where we purchased it and they said they never heard of that ever happening and they could find nothing wrong with the car. We fear it may happen again and lead to an accident. |
