Description of the problem | I accelerated up to 30 mph on a city street and then coasted up to traffic and was slowing down, at the light and my car all the sudden turned on 3 lights the traction control light, check engine light and the trottle position light. I stopped my car at the light and once i did the car jerked forward sending me into the intersection. Lucky no one was coming but i ended up having to run the red light because my car jerk forward again and once i gave it gas it only got worse. I pulled off into a parking lot and turned my car on and off a few times to reset the computer. It finally did after turning it on and off five times. All the lights went off. So i tried to drive it to work and once i drove down the city road a little ways (maybe a mile). The car jerked and attempted to shift up and then downshifted and my engine then reved to five thousand rpm. And all the lights turned back on and my car jerk violently back and forth. The rpm's stayed at three to four thousand reving my engine needlessly. I finally pulled off the road into a parking lot and had to have my car towed to a shop. The jeep certified mechanic replaced the throttle body. I have heard of a lot of other people with this issue |
