Terrain

  • 1 miles
Leaving my parking spot after going out to eat I went in reverse and the vehicle stalled at about 5mph, turned the car completely off and then turned back on. Put it in drive and just as I started to accelerate it stalled. This happened 10-12 times while I was trying to leave the parking lot. Vehicle stalled while leaving car wash as I was excelleratig our. Vehicle stalled as I was leaving a complete stop from a stop sign on a city street. Something is wrong with the engine stalling while starting to accelerate. 43,000 miles from first occurrence currently at 43,300 still happening on a regular basis.

Terrain

On 1/10/18, I was on my way to work and received message "engine power reduced", the engine light came on and power was reduced to 25 mph. I brought the Terrain into a mechanic and he synchronized the gas pedal sensor and fuel sensor and the engine light went out. On 1/13/18, the same thing happened except I was on a highway and it was much more frightening. I brought the Terrain back to my mechanic and left the vehicle. I am now without a car for the weekend.
