Description of the problem	After driving the vehicle for a couple of hours on saturday morning on the interstate i was driving in city traffic. I made a right turn from a stopped position. As i accelerated the engine began to sputter and acted like it was not in gear. The dashboard wrench light came on and i had no response from the gas peddle and the idle was extremely rough. I coasted to a stop and turned off the vehicle. After reading in the manual about the light (power train issue) i called and had the vehicle towed to my dealer for service. As it was saturday i had to wait for service until monday. Monday morning i rented a vehicle from the dealer. On thursday, 10/25/12, my vehicle was ready for pickup. When i spoke to the service adviser i was told it was the throttle body was sticking for an unknown reason and they replaced it. I was informed that this was not a power train issue, but it was an emissions issue. They also said it was not covered under the power train warranty. According to my service ticket they also charged me an additional $170 on a miscellaneous item. On 11/12/12 the wrench light came on again when i started the vehicle in the morning. I drove it to my dealer and was told it was the canister purge valve that had a leak. This was also not covered under warranty.
