Consumer Description

INTERMITTENT VEHICLE STALLS, WHICH IS TYPICALLY MORE COMMON AS WELL AS SURGES WHEN ENTERING TRAFFIC FROM A STOPPED POSITION OR WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING AT A CONSTANT SPEED (BETWEEN 15 AND 25 MPH) THE CAR WILL SLOW DOWN EVEN THOUGH I HAVE NOT LIFTED MY FOOT UP FROM THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON EVER SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN JANUARY OF 2012, REGARDLESS OF THE WEATHER OR THE SEASON. I HAVE GONE TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS AND THEY CLAIM NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. OTHER PEOPLE HAVE DRIVEN MY CAR AND HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE STALLS AND SURGES WHILE DRIVING THE CAR. THANK YOU YOUR HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED. *TR
