Description of the problem | Just purchased the car used from a dealer on 6/19 with only 5100 miles on it. By 6/22, by noticed that the car will shudder occasionally after accelerating, coasting, and then attempting to accelerate again. While accelerating from a turn to an interchange, the car shook as if going over rumble strips for about 4 seconds and wasn't able to achieve accelerating power until shaking stopped. Has occurred about 7 times over the past day. Very frustrated in the dealer who now says the manufacturer will cover any defects. I feel the dealer knowingly passed the problem on to me. |
