Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased the vehicle on 11/23/06 and on 1/27/07, the p1009 check engine emission failure code came up on my navigation screen just as my car suddenly lost its ability to accelerate or maintain its current speed. my speed was reduce immediately from 60 mph to 20 mph and the rpm dropped from 3 to below 1. the car became sluggish and acted as though it was stalling. the car was immediately sent in for repair and i was told the solenoid was not installed correctly which cause the vehicle timing to be incorrect. today is 2/28/07 and the car was towed away because the same error occurred along with a new error. the vsa failure alert appeared on my navigation screen followed by the p1009 check vehicle emission error. it has been 1 month to the tee and the same symptoms reappeared. the car lost its ability to accelerate and the engine stalled suddenly. *nm
