ENGINE
I HAD JUST LEFT FOR WORK AND AFTER DRIVING FOR TWO MINUTES, THE ENGINE, COOLANT AND NAVIGATIONAL LIGHTS TURNED ON, AND WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO DRIVE OVER 15 MPH. I RETURNED HOME, CHECKED, AND TOP OFF THE COOLANT LEVEL, WHICH WAS NOT VERY LOW AT ALL. RESET THE PANEL AND ONCE I STARTED TO PULL OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE, THE SAME LIGHTS TURNED ON. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST INCIDENT I HAVE HAD WITH THIS CAR. PLEASE REFER TO THE OTHER INCIDENTS I HAVE SUBMITTED, AFFECTING OTHER PARTS OF THIS CAR. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 DODGE CALIBER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ENGAGE THE BRAKE PEDAL AT 45 MPH ON AN INCLINE, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BECAME STUCK IN THE OPEN THROTTLE POSITION. THE CONTACT SHIFTED THE VEHICLE INTO PARK AND WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE BY APPLYING THE BRAKES. HE HAD TO REPOSITION THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL IN ORDER TO CONTINUE DRIVING. THE FAILURE PERSISTED FOUR ADDITIONAL TIMES ON THE SAME DAY. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND STATED THAT THE REPAIR POTENTIALLY WOULD NOT PREVENT THE FAILURE FROM RECURRING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE UNTIL THE FAILURE HAD OCCURRED AT LEAST THREE ADDITIONAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 94,000.
