Takata recall I was driving a 40mph street when I was going to make a left turn. I was waiting for cars to pass to make the turn when the throttle control light came on the dashboard. I was trying to turn but the car wouldn't let me accelerate. I am thankful that there wasn't any cars coming towards me. I pulled over turned it off and back on it went away. The car had a recall in 2017 for the alternator. I had a similar incident where I was driving and the Jeep had slowed down it completely turned off but was able to pull over at a apartment complex. The Jeeps dashboard lights were flashing the windshield wipers were on really fast, everything was flashing. I couldn't put the car in parking, it was smoking. I had my daughter in the back seat, I had managed to turn around get her out while my foot was on the pedal jump out of the car with her in my arms. The car kept moving until it crashed into a car infront of it. I felt like I was going to die with my daughter in the car. I feel like the throttle could be related to the alternator. I am scared to drive my car.
