| 2012 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY GOING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE ANY FURTHER. CARS WERE SPEEDING BY AND I COULD NOT ACCELERATE. EPC LIGHT CAME ON. HAD TO GET OFF THE ROAD AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF. CAR HAS DONE THIS MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR THAT I HAVE OWNED IT. EPC LIGHT RESETS AFTER CAR SITS OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES AND PROBLEM GOES AWAY. DEALER SAYS NOTHING THEY CAN DO BECAUSE THE LIGHT GOES OFF BEFORE IT GETS TO THE DEALER. WHEN THIS HAPPENS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY, IT IS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE YOU CANT ACCELERATE AND MOVE TO A SAFE SIDE OF THE ROAD. *TR |
