Coming home from work on highway. . Going up small incline speed started to drop. Then shut off. Smoke from under hood would not start. Made a clicking noise. Computer read several codes relating to knock sensor. Was replaced (2nd time) and codes cleared. Still not starting. No codes showing. Starter also replaced. Other relay sensors checked. This car has been an expense ever since purchased.
Car became unresponsive to the gas pedal at 45 mph. A loud clicking noise could be heard underneath about mid body. It doesnt want to accelerate for passing etc. Could smell fuel and the car was smoking lightly when I got it home. Sat it for 30 minutes and it seems to be ok for now,but havent been on highway yet. 36,000 miles.
