Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Throttle body failure on my 200v70xc. the unit has been replaced twice.#1@77000miles, #2@115000. this is very serious. i drive a busy highway to and from work. the faliure occurences on some occassions have been frightening in an effort to get out of oncoming cars ways. i have been commuting with my 22 month old for his entire life. affordability and timing affects the opportunty when the time arises to get the problem fixed. this is a very costly issue. therefore several failures happended in both occassions prior to getting fixed. the most recent time took two additional trips and the replacement of an accellarator pedal to clear the code and stop the ets failures for now.*ak
