problem #1

Jun 132007

V40 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 103,246 miles
The vehicle both accelerated and decelerated without input, placing me in a very unsafe situation. When I stopped the car the engine, which had overheated, the radiator hose blew out. The radiator hose was replaced. I am currently discussing correction to the electronic throttle module which appeared to be a problem with this make and model.
