Consumer Description

WHEN THE SPEED REACHES ABOUT 8 MPH WHILE COASTING TO A STOP, WITH NO DRIVER ACCELERATION OR BRAKING, THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATES AS THOUGH IT WAS CHANGING GEARS. THE INSIGHT DOES NOT HAVE A GEARED TRANSMISSION ... IT IS A CVT. THE AUTO-STOP LIGHT IS NOT LIT WHEN THIS OCCURS. THIS HAPPENS VERY FREQUENTLY. THE DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. I WAS NOT IN THE VEHICLE WHEN HE TOOK THE INSIGHT FOR A TEST DRIVE. BASED ON MY OBSERVATIONS OF OTHER DRIVERS, VERY FEW WOULD LET THE CAR COAST THAT SLOWLY. IT IS VERY ANNOYING AND DISCONCERTING.
