Description of the problem | Since buying the car new i have had multiple issues with the transmission jerking, slipping, loss of take off power and feelings of unsafe driving situations. My vehicle one time felt like someone threw on an emergency brake and nose dived on the highway when it lost power during acceleration off entrance ramp. Most of the time the surging,bucking, slow to respond happens when the vehicle is warmed up and have to move after a stop light or sign. Also had to bring it in to dealer to have wiring fixed due to vibrations of vehicle. Last few trips to the dealer i had to pay out of pocket and never got any solid answers to the problem or any fixes, just told it is within limits. With no fixes in the plans i quit taking it in to the dealership due to no issues being covered under warranty. |
