Description of the problem | I have an acceleration problems, from the time i purchased the vehicle. You date below indicates only 1 time. So when the car is stopped and trying to pull out onto a highway or trying to make a turn across a lane of traffic, there is no acceleration, no gas, a hesitation i can punch the gas pedal to the floor before it actually will move then there's a lurch forward. This is a big concern, i can not have any traffic at all oncoming if i need to make a turn. This happens pulling onto the interstate, also from a stationary or almost stationary position. I can't have any traffic coming there's such a hesitation. I'm afraid this will result in a collision. This doesn't happen every time, i'd say a 50/50 chance of it happening. I haven't had an accident yet because of it. Very concerned, afraid to let anyone drive the car as i'm aware of the issue and am very cautious. |
