Gasoline Fuel System problem

Repeated instances in Dec. 2008 and Jan. 2009 of vehicle going into "limp" mode, virtually inoperable. Car service department analyzed the vehicle diagnostics on two occasions, finally claiming that a defective throttle body assembly was the problem. Cost to me for repair - approx. $1,300. Calls to a number of service departments for the vehicle make indicated that such defect was fairly common. I suspect the vehicle has a faulty throttle body assembly and should be subject to official recall for replacement.
