“While driving home our headlights flickered and turned off. I was able to pull over and restart the vehicle and the headlights came back on.

The code indicated that the throttle body was the cause of the failure. The failure was intermittent at first but progressed and was constant. The part for repair was backordered. The vehicle had not been repaired. …”
