Description of the problem | Every time i accelerate, the engine hesitates. When car is cold or warm. The first week i had it i thought maybe it was due to a smaller "fuel efficient" engine, which i had never had until i bought this vehicle 9 months ago. Now it is a huge and consistent issue, i feel unsafe and like i cannot get out off the way if needed. It chugs for a second or two and then accelerates. Sometimes it accelerates abruptly. This happens every single time the vehicle is driven. |
