Description of the problem	Upon suppressing the accelerator pedal vehicle fails to accelerate from standstill creating a 2-3 "pause" that is highly dangerous especially when entering traffic, freeways, etc. This is clearly a problem that is documented however no recall has been granted for this model. It doesn't matter what road: city street or a highway. The vehicle hesitates and does not move when you need to! When the powertrain does finally take hold, the engine revs high and pulses forward causing yet another disturbing and potentially dangerous condition for driver and others on the road. This is clearly a mechanical and/or software glitch that will eventually result in accidents and bodily harm. Note this condition is sometimes intermittent therefore creating a false sense of driver control since you never know when you will face lack of proper acceleration. At first i suspected it was just the 4-cyl engine being small, but after reading about other people having exactly same experience.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
