Example complaints

“Accelerating on interstate and all of a sudden complety lost engine power. Engine would continue running, but would not accelerate. Could have easily gotten into a wreck if there had been more traffic on the interstate. Ended up getting towed and having to replace the throttle unit which cost almost $1000, this could have been a very dangerous situation with a very bad outcome if traffic had been heavier.”
