| Driving on interstate at approximately 75 mph on 11/16/2011 when vehicle suddenly lost power, engine still running but no response to accelerator. fortunately there was minimal traffic and i was able to coast and exit the highway into a truck stop. vehicle was towed to a station that identified a throttle actuator shutdown. system was reset but no other problem could be identified at that time. the same thing happened on 6/15/2012, travelling at approx. 40 mph on a back road, no other traffic, was able to safely pull to the side. vehicle mileage at time of second incident was approx 100,040. vehicle was towed to a dealership where the part to be replaced was identified. my concern is this represents a potential safety hazard were this to occur on a busy highway. there is also a hard jarring of the transmission when the throttle shutdown occurs. | |||
