| Was driving on residential street, approximately 25-30 mph, and car just lost power and stalled. after a few minutes it could start again - but the vehicle would not move, even if gas was pushed down. after a week at the dealership - they said it was the throttle. my car would not start before (after only having the car for approximately 7 months and approximately 2000 miles) - and after having it towed to the dealer, they just said the fuel was gelling. but they did do a computer upgrade and said there particles in the fuel line that they cleaned out and said i may have gotten bad fuel. 1 week after my 40000 mile routine maintenance check - my glow plug light went on and i had to have a sensor replaced. | |||
