Description of the problem | After the fca eco diesel settlement recall the throttle on my grand cherokee deisel has severe lag until the car has been driven for several miles. It does not matter if you let the car warm up or not. It is so bad that you cannot trust it to pull out into traffic for fear the throttle will not engage even with adequate space for entering traffic. I have almost been hit several times trying to enter traffic due to this lag. |
