EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!! THIS VEHICLE WILL, WITHOUT WARNING, LOSE POWER. THE ENGINE DOES NOT SHUTDOWN, BUT IT LOSES POWER AS MINIMAL FUEL IS GETTING TO ENGINE. STEERING NOT LOST, ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS SEEM OK, BUT NO RESPONSE WHEN STEPPING ON ACCELERATOR. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS, RANDOM TIMES WITHOUT WARNING OR REGARD TO ANY CONDITIONS I CAN DETERMINE (WEATHER, SPEED, AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE TANK, TRAFFIC CONDITIONS). THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHERE YOU SOMEHOW HAVE TO STEER CAR OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC GOING 60+ MPH! THIS COULD CAUSE A HUGE ACCIDENT AND EVEN LEAD TO SOME DEATHS - IT IS VERY UNNERVING! THE ISSUE ALSO HAPPENS AT OTHER TIMES, NON-HIGHWAY DRIVING, SOMETIMES WHEN STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC SIGNAL, EVEN JUST PULLING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY! IT IS RANDOM AND WITHOUT WARNING. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO THE OCCUPANTS OF THIS VEHICLE AND ANY VEHICLE THAT MAY WRECK INTO IT DUE TO THIS ISSUE. WHEN IT DOES HAPPEN, THE WRENCH LIGHT ILLUMINATES, BUT THERE IS NO RESPONSE FROM THE ACCELERATOR. THUS FAR, IF THE VEHICLE IS PUT IN PARK, TURNED OFF, THEN RESTARTED, IT USUALLY RESTARTS - UNTIL THE NEXT RANDOM TIME IT OCCURS. IT SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO THE THROTTLE BODY OR SOMETHING IN THAT PATH. THERE IS SPACE FOR ONLY ONE OCCURRENCE OF THIS, BUT THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED AT LEAST 20 TIMES IN THE LAST 4 WEEKS. MECHANIC CANNOT FIND ANY CODES IN THE ARCHIVE, SO THEY CAN'T FIX IT. ONE OTHER THING, THE VEHICLE WILL SOMETIMES UNEXPECTEDLY SURGE WHEN ACCELERATING.
