The electronic throttle light comes on and the RPM decreases then engine stalls. Several times I was able to restart engine and it has now completely failed. I see numerous reports of this issue online but no specific repair for this defect.

Vehicle stall first time on august 20 2013. It would only get up to 10mph. Had to get it towed to shop. They cleaned the throttle work for about a month. On september 18 problem occurred again the red light which looks like a lighting bolt came on . Lost power pull over on interstate crank up again work fine until september 25 when it stall again had to get a tow truck again to take it to another shop. They told me that the first shop should not have replace throttle that only work temporarily. So they replace the whole throttle and reprogram this cost me a total of $733. This can be dangerous going down the interstate lucky didn't cost a accident. This should never happen especially 3 years old.
