Consumer Description

NO FAILURE, ACCIDENTS OR INJURIES. THE PROBLEM IS A LAG IN ACCELERATION AT THROTTLE TIP IN. THE LAG CAN CAUSE DANGEROUS SITUATIONS WHEN PULLING IN FRONT OF TRAFFIC AND THE CAR FAILS TO ACCELERATE IN A TIMELY MANNER. IT HAS CAUSED US TO BECOME HESITANT WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND WE LACK CONFIDENCE WHEN PULLING INTO AN INTERSECTION FROM A STOP. IT IS CONSIDERED NORMAL OPERATION BY THE MANUFACTURER. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS WHO BOTH AGREED THERE WAS A LAG AND BOTH TOLD US THERE IS NO RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. WE FEEL THE LAG IS BAD ENOUGH TO CONSTITUTE A SAFETY ISSUE. *NM
