Description of the problem | Either going from a dead stop or while in traffic and applying the pedal to increase speed, the engine "stalls" for a few seconds and then re-gains it normal speed. Pulling my travel trailer and attempting to pass a vehicle, the engine stalled causing me to apply the brakes and fall back in behind the vehicle i was attempting to pass. Engine stalls when not towing and when towing. Many close calls from being hit due to truck slowing down. I view this as others do ~ dead pedal. This is a major issue that the dealer fails to understand or doesn't believe you. A few more trips to the dealer with this problem and i am going to go with the "lemon law." |
