Description of the problem | Since brand new at times when stopped then accelerate to turn left or right it will hesitate when i am half way turned causing the vehicle to lose power then it will catch causing a burst in acceleration. At times i have lost power when i need it most. It is very dangerous. I have called my dealers attention to it and was told they cannot duplicate in a test drive so nothing is wrong. It does not do it often 6 or 7 times a week but it seems to be getting worse. This is a huge safety issue. |
