STOPPED AT RED LIGHT- WHE I TRIED TO ACCELERATE THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE- IT WAS TERRIFYING!! CARS HAD TO GO AROUND- WAS ABLE AFTER AT LEAST TEN ATTEMPTS TO GET THE CAR TO MOVE TO SIDE OF ROAD. WAITED AND CALLED FAMILY MEMBER FOR HELP. WAS FORTUNATELY ABOUT 5 BLOCKS FORM MY HOME. CAR CONTINUED TO JERK FORWARD AND HAD TO STOP SEEVRAL TIMES. IT IS NOW IN MY GARAGE AND AWAITING A TOW TRUCK, THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE NOT SPECIFICALLY NOT GOING BUT TROUBLES WITH CAR SURING REPEATEDLY FOR NO REASON AND HAD TO REPLACE BATTERY 4 TIMES AND THERE WAS NOTHING I DID TO CREATE THIS LOSS OF BATTERY. THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS FIXED PREVIOUSLY STATED THAT " THE CAR APPEARS POSSESSED". THIS IS SOMEHTING THAT HAS APPARENTLY BEEN A LONG TERM KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE. WHY HAS IT NOT BEEN FULLY INVESTIGATED. PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY HURT OR WORSE.
