This is the second time that my throttle body has given out and I just got mine fixed not even 2 months ago. This cost me $875 which is ridiculous. I still owe $15,000 on this vehicle and I have to shell out another $875, including a rental car because it took a day to fix, it's ridiculous.

I am almost at the point were I wanna trade this in, I love this vehicle other then this issue. I need help with this, I can't keep having this. I am a single mother of 3 kids, I cant keep paying this and having these issues especially when it has no power on the freeway and I'm on the far inner lane with my kids in the car with me.
