Engine shakes violently. Went to drive my vehicle to go to an appointment and noticed the engine ran different. When I started to move the vehicle the engine began to shake violently and it could be felt inside the car. The car then cut off, so I had to restart the vehicle. While driving the engine lost power and could not accelerate. I would remove foot off the gas pedal and the shaking subsides, but when you step on the gas pedal again the engine shakes violently again. Taking car to the dealership for a diagnoses, but from articles online there appears to be a PCM & coils, but no recall available for this reported complaint. The car shakes while I drove on the highway and local roads and while stationary.
