I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, ACCELERATING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION WHEN THE CAR JERKED, STALLED OR BECAME UNRESPONSIVE TO ACCELERATING. I COULD ONLY BRAKE BUT THE RADIO AND A/C WERE FINE AND KEPT RIGHT ON, THE CAR JUST WOULD NOT GO. SO I SLOWED DOWN, PULLED OVER, TURNED THE KEY OFF, LET THE CAR SIT A MOMENT, THEN I TURNED THE CAR ON AGAIN. IT STARTED UP NO PROBLEM AND I DROVE AWAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES ACCELERATING DOWN THE ROAD GONG ANYWHERE BETWEEN 25-60MPH. AFTER EACH INCIDENT THE CAR SEEMS TO HAVE A SLIGHT HESITATION OR SO I FEEL, MAYBE I'M JUST BEING SENSITIVE TO THE CAR SO I CAN READ IT CORRECTLY. BUT EACH COMPUTER PROBLEM PRINTOUT AT A NON DEALERSHIP PARTS STORE SHOWS NOTHING IS WRONG. THE WRENCH WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE CAR STALLS DURING ACCELERATING AND THE LIGHT TURNS OFF ONCE I HAVE RESTARTED THE CAR.
