The vehicle was taken to the dealer who determined that the electronic throttle needed to be replaced. Neither the dealer nor manufacturer agree to replaced the throttle free of charge because the vehicle was out of warranty. During inspection the technician found the front control arm and upper spring seat broken. The power steering fluid leaked due to a faulty hose clamp.
