Description of the problem | Within the first few hundred miles i drove the car i noticed that when i was at highway speed and tried to accelerate the car acted like it couldn't get in gear and go. The acceleration was delayed dramatically. That has continued ever since. More recently from a dead stop when i accelerate the car shudders, makes loud, odd noises and accelerates with difficulty. This car is a danger to me and to others. |
