Consumer Description

THE VEHICLE HAS A SEVERE HESITATION WHEN THE ENGINE IS UNDER A LOAD. THIS HAS BEEN CALLED A SURGE BY ONE MECHANIC. HAD TRUCK 2 MONTHS BOUGHT IT USED WITH 29,000 MILES IT'S A GMC ENVOY. WHILE GOING UP HILLS ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH, THE ENGINES STARTS TO MISS/SURGE/HESITATE CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LOSE SPEED AND RPM'S. AS YOU SLOWLY PRESS THE GAS PEDAL TO GAIN SPEED THE ENGINE MISSES MORE. I HAD THIS TRUCK TO THE DEALER 6 TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. THEY CHANGED THE FUEL MODULE ON THE ENGINE THEN REBUILT THE TRANSMISSION. I WAS TOLD BY THEM IT'S THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE VEHICLE. *TR
