2014 Chevrolet Spark no acceleration, check engine light, traction control.
no acceleration, check engine light, traction control.
What is your question?
Started on my way to work today. Started my car for the first time today and the traction control and check engine light were flashing. That only lasted for about 2 minutes. During that 2 minutes though the car seemed to have no power and was struggling to go. After though when the lights stopped flashing and turned off everything seemed to go back to normal and I was able to drive for a little bit. About 10 minutes into my drive the gas pedal stopped working and the car had no acceleration. The power steering, brakes, A/C, lights, everything else though seemed to keep working normal in the car. The gauge in my dashboard did show the car had no RPM's once I came to a stop. I drifted slowly to a stop though to a safe turn off. Once I came to a stop I turned the car off. A minute later I turned the car back on and was able to drive the rest of my way to work without any problems. The car seemed to go back to normal again, it's weird. Thank you for your time
What makes this problem better or worse?
starting car for first time for the day

Did you ever figure it out. Please share, I'm having an almost identical issue, intermittently, might be tied to rain, or coincidence idk, dealership doesn't see anything, very frustrating.
Hope you see this, lol, this was long time ago. Thanks
This just happened to me the other day. I've been dealing with the jerking once reaching 3000Rpms, but the other day on the way to work the car did a hard jerk knocking the check engine light on. I got to the stop light and the car would not move. I literally floored the pedal and nothing. Then it slowly accelerated. I was so scared. It just happened out of no where. The same I figured out turning it off and back on got it to move. Even in drive from stop to go, the car would begin to roll backwards.
This happened to our car last week, a diagnostics check indicated that the Powertrain Control Module or Engine Control Computer needs to be replaced.
Did anyone else have this as a solution?
Kloozy, it is definitely tied to rain because I am having the same problems after flash flooding in my area. Did you ever find a fix??
