1ST EVENT ON 9/6/14: ENTERING FREEWAY AT 45 MPH, INCREASED ACCELERATION TO MERGE AND THE ENGINE SUDDENLY LAGGED WITH ZERO POWER FOR 2-3 SECONDS WHEN THE CAR TRIED TO SHIFT INTO THE NEXT GEAR. 2ND EVENT 9-11-14: ACCELERATED FROM A STOP. OPERATED PROPERLY THROUGH 1ST AND 2ND GEAR. WHEN THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED INTO 3RD GEAR, THE ENGINE LAGGED/LOST POWER. ACCELERATOR CONTINUED TO BE DEPRESSED AND 2-3 SECONDS LATER, FULL POWER CAME BACK. ADDITIONAL EVENT AUG-2014: A PASSING MANEUVER REQUIRED HARD ACCELERATION WHICH RESULTED IN A LAG WHEN THE TRANSMISSION TRIED TO SHIFT INTO A PASSING GEAR. AGAIN WE HAD ZERO POWER WITH THE ENGINE DROPPING TO IDLE FOR AT LEAST 3 SECONDS AND THEN SUDDENLY COMING BACK UP TO SPEED. NOTE: WE'VE HAD THE CAR REPROGRAMMED PER NHTSA RECALL 14132 IN JUNE 2014. THIS IS THE SAME SYMPTOMS BUT OCCURRING AT MUCH HIGHER SPEEDS AND GEAR SELECTION. CAR IS UNSAFE AS THE POWER LOSS COULD'VE RESULTED IN A REAR END COLLISION. *TR
