Description of the problem | I was pulling out of a parking lot. I drove a few yards and the car would not accelerate over 25mph even though i was pushing on the accelerator. There were no warning lights, but the rpm's would not go up. I stopped and put it in park, revved the engine, and put it in drive again. It worked fine for about a mile until i pulled up to a stop light. As the light turned green, i could not get the car to go over 25 mph. (i was turning left at the intersection, so it was very dangerous that i could not get the car to accelerate as i was facing upcoming traffic.) i pulled onto the shoulder and put it in park again. I was able to make it the additional mile home but thankfully did not have to stop at a light again. The dealership has ran diagnostics on it and can't find anything wrong with it, but i'm scared to drive it again. |
