“On my way home from work on friday june 22nd, the car was running very rough and I had trouble braking. On monday june 25. I had been at a stoplight. When the light turned green I accelerated and when I was at about 25 MPH I stepped on the gas pedal, and had trouble gaining speed and the control light came on. I turned on my flashers and made it to a mechanic, but by that time the light had gone off. Every mechanic I have talked to tells me they can not determine the problem is and fix it unless the light is on when I bring in the car. …”
