Description of the problem | The car has been stalling, jerking, jumping and skipping every time i accelerate. I have taken the car to the dealers more than 4 or 5 times since i bought it in 2014! They told me those cars will do that. Wrong! I have all the paperwork of how many times i have taking it for the same thing. The car continues to shudders at slow speeds, and jerks into gear. When backing up on incline street/driveway, rolls back. When accelerating in a highway is dangerous as the car does not respond and making it a safety hazard when shifting lanes, entering on intersections or highway. The problem continues after taking if to the dealer many times. |
