What owners report

  • Car slowed down and electronic throttle control light and traction control light came on was dangerously slow to accelerate and would not maintain speed

    filed Jan 24, 2022

  • Car jerks extremely bad when on accelerator. Doesn't do it all the time. Just when it wants to. Left me stuck in the middle of a main highway while trying to pull out into traffic. Looked up the cause and I believe it to be the electronic throttle control.
