Consumer Description

I PURCHASED A 2016 ACURA RDX WITH 995 MILES ON 1/21/2016. ON THE DRIVE HOME, AND SEVERAL TIMES SINCE (THE LATEST BEING EARLIER THIS WEEK) WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AT SLOW SPEED (AFTER STOPPING OR SLOWING) THE VEHICLE "DIES" AND I KEEP PUSHING ON THE ACCELERATOR AND AFTER 20 SECONDS OR SO, IT "GRABS" AND I CAN CONTINUE ON. CURRENT MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE IS 1739. I CALLED GETTEL ACURA IN SARASOTA FL AND WAS TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE HAS TO LEARN MY DRIVING HABITS AND MY DRIVING STYLE. PER GETTEL SERVICE MANAGER, THIS SHOULD BE SELF-CORRECTING AT ABOUT 2000 MILES. (?)
