Consumer Description

ACCELERATION STALLS FROM 0-5 MPH THEN IS FOLLOWED BY A HARSH BUMP ON TAKE-OFF THIS CAR IS VERY DANGEROUS IT WILL STALL UPON DOWN SHIFTING WHILE MERGING INTO TRAFFIC FOR AS LONG AS 6 SECONDS. THIS CAUSES TRAFFIC BEHIND ME TO TAKE AVOIDANCE MANEUVERS. WHEN PASSING IT WILL DO THE SAME THING TAKING 3 TO 6 SECONDS TO START ACCELERATING. WHEN I PULL OUT TO PASS IT FALLS BACK A FULL CAR LENGTH BEFORE IT MAKES UP ITS MIND TO ACCELERATE. VERY DANGEROUS, IT WILL DO THIS AT 30 MPH THROUGH 70 MPH. *TR
