Bought car in August of 2004, this is the fourth time car has been put in shop. Car would be still running but "engine reduce power displayed on screen", no gas would go to pedal I would have to coast to a safe location. Dealer claims it is the throttle body, each time they say they have repaired it but this is number 4. Replaced a computer chip, flushed out throttle body component, replace craked crank shaft case, haven't heard what now they are replacing.
