HHR

Car was struggling to start, when it did, it wouldn't go over 20mph, went to store, came out, it would start. Had it towed to the shop, engine crack and from that cracking it broke other stuff. I owe 3700. On the car and to fix it is $3200 sadly I do T have the money. No care, no way to get to work. Car was sitting in parking lot of our local save a lot.

HHR 4-cyl

  • 100,990 miles
I was driving a freeway speeds when the engine suddenly went into limp home mode. I received the following dash indications - service ESC, traction off, reduced engine power. Upon further inspection we found a failed accelerator position sensor and we had the following trouble codes stored in the computer: P2135 Chevrolet - throttle/pedal position sensor/switch 'a'/'B' voltage correlation replaced the accelerator position sensor and gas pedal assembly, at this point the car seems fine. I have the failed part.
