Complaint Summary

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)

Owner Narrative

I WAS SITTING IN A PARKING LOT WITH MY TRUCK RUNNING, I NOTICED MY RPM'S WERE STARTING TO FLUTTER AND MY OIL PRESSURE WAS DOING THE SAME. AFTER A FEW MINUTES OR SO MY TRUCK STARTED SHAKING AND THE RPM'S WERE STILL FLUTTERING. WHILE THIS HAPPENED MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT FLASHED "ENGINE POWER REDUCED" "SERVICE TRACTION" AND THEN "SERVICE STABILITRAK." I THEN SHUT MY TRUCK OFF AND WAITED APPROX. 25 MINUTES. WHEN I TURNED MY TRUCK BACK ON THE RPM'S WERE STILL FLUTTERING BUT THE TRUCK WAS NO LONGER SHAKING. I TOOK MY TRUCK TO AUTO-ZONE THE FOLLOWING MORNING AND HAD A DIAGNOSTIC DONE, THE TROUBLE CODE HAD TO DO WITH THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. AFTER THAT MY COMPUTER MUST HAVE RESET ITSELF AND EVERYTHING WENT BACK TO RUNNING NORMALLY UNTIL ABOUT TWO WEEKS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. *TR
