Consumer Description

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO OR EXTREMELY LATE RESPONSE THEN LUNGE FORWARD WHEN COMMANDED BY PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR. OFTEN TIMES WHEN YOU ARE TURNING IN FRONT OF OTHER TRAFFIC. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL NEAR MISSES WITH BEING STUCK IN AN INTERSECTION OR A VERY DELAYED THROTTLE RESPONSE LUNGING ME INTO ON COMING TRAFFIC. THE CAR GOES INTO LIMP MODE OR THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO ACT UP AFTER THIS HAPPENS. I GET A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND A WRENCH LIGHT ON THE DASH. ALSO THE CAR HAS HAD UNCOMMANDED ENGINE SPEEDS AT A STOP SIGN OR REDLIGHT. SEEMED TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL OR THE A/C IS ON. ALSO VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE THREE KIDS I HAVE TO DRIVE AROUND AND I FEEL UNSAFE IN IT. I HAVE SEEN THESE EXACT SAME ISSUES WITH THIS CAR ALL OVER THE INTERNET ADDRESSING FAULTY ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODIES AND THE CVT TRANSMISSION. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL BEFORE SOME THING HAPPENS. *TR
