Description of the problem | I bought this car brand new on march 10, 2014. About a week after having it i noticed when i accelerate it gets very jerky and the rpms shoot up higher than i've ever seen in another car. There is also a grinding sound when i am accelerating and sometimes even when i am just driving. I am very concerned, and i am taking it back to the dealership this afternoon. |
