Consumer Description

WHEN I STOP AT A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT AND THEN TAKE OFF AGAIN MY CAR SHUDDERS AS I TRY TO START DRIVING. THEN, WHEN I TRY TO ACCELERATE IT LAGS, AND I HAVE TO PUT THE PEDDLE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR BEFORE IT WILL ACCELERATE EVEN THE SLIGHTEST BIT. THIS OCCURS EVERY SINGLE TIME I DRIVE MY CAR. OFTEN WHEN I ATTEMPT TO DRIVE OFF AND I PUT MY FOOT DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL, THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS MIDWAY THROUGH AND AFTER THE INITIAL TAKE OFF THE CAR STALLS. THIS HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO GET HIT MULTIPLE TIMES. THIS IS NOT SAFE. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BECAUSE IT IS A SERIOUS HAZARD. *TR
